Beschreibungen/Notizen

• "Lung Health for All" is the key theme of World Lung Day 2022 (Sep 25). The day aims to highlight the global burden of the major respiratory diseases and the impact of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), with a focus on low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Key messages for the day are the importance of early detection and reduction of inequalities. These align well with the objectives Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) of improving the diagnosis and management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) around the world. GOLD strongly supports the Global Alliance against Respiratory Disease statement that inequities in provision of life-changing care for chronic lung diseases must no longer be tolerated.
