On the occasion of World Psoriasis Day (October 29), an awareness campaign called Dot Day is taking place again this year. The non-profit organization Revenium is behind it. Its goal is to inform the public about the nature of this chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of the whole organism, which affects 125 million people worldwide. There are approximately 265,000 patients in the Czech Republic. The public should know that psoriasis is not infectious, there is no reason to turn away patients and reject them in any way. It can be treated, but unfortunately not completely cured yet.
Join the challenge and support psoriasis sufferers by wearing clothes, accessories or even just polka dot socks on Sunday 29th October.
