On World Haemophilia Day, Kenyatta National Hospital is highlighting the critical importance of early diagnosis for individuals living with this rare blood disorder.

• An estimated 5,300 Kenyans are living with haemophilia, a genetic condition where blood doesn't clot properly.
• The Principal Secretary for Medical Services, Dr. Ouma Oluga, is leading the celebrations under the theme “Diagnosis: First Step to Care.”
• Despite growing awareness, Kenyan patients face challenges including misdiagnosis, high treatment costs, and limited access to care, with Haemophilia A and Haemophilia B being the most prevalent types.
