Strengthening Rhesus Disease Prevention in Africa


Globally, there are many areas, including areas in Africa, where there are still no systematic efforts to prevent Rhesus disease. To address this issue, there was an important meeting seeking to scale-up the efforts to address Rhesus disease in Francophone Africa. The meeting took place on Thursday February 9 in Marrakech in Morocco with the participation of professionals from all over Francophone Africa. The meeting was arranged jointly by WIRhE, AFOG, SRMGO, and SAGO. Eldon Biologicals participated in the meeting continuing its concerted support to the global efforts to eradicate Rhesus disease.
