The Ministry affirmed Kuwait's support for preventive, therapeutic, and early diagnostic measures, highlighting its leadership in international efforts to establish a World Day for Disease Awareness. It was also noted that the incidence rate in Kuwait has decreased from 5 to 7 cases annually to just one, thanks to collaboration between the Hereditary Diseases Center and the Fertility Assistance Unit.
