The 2025 World Asthma Day was marked in Accra with a renewed call for improved access to inhaled treatment for asthma patients, especially in low- and middle-income countries.
Commemorated under the theme "Make inhaled treatment accessible to all," the event, held at the Trust Premium Centre in Osu, was organised by Trust Hospital in partnership with AstraZeneca.
It brought together health professionals and key stakeholders in respiratory care to raise awareness about asthma, which continues to pose a major public health challenge globally.
Chief Executive Officer of Trust Hospital, Dr Juliana Oye Armah, described asthma as a silent epidemic that continues to claim lives largely due to lack of access to essential medication.
