💫 March is #AutoimmuneDiseaseAwarenessMonth!
Lupus is a complex autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues, causing inflammation that can affect many parts of the body.
About 10% of people are diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, and 1 in 4 may develop a second. Raising awareness helps drive understanding, earlier diagnosis, and better treatments.
