How Covid-19 Is Changing Rare Diseases Research
MedCity News ∙ 03/09/2021 ∙ Rare Diseases
Twenty years after researchers published their first discoveries associated with human genome sequencing, policymakers are fighting to overcome obstacles that hobble the potential of genetic medicine to recognize, diagnose and cure rare diseases.
“It’s time to change the narrative: rare disease is a public health issue because while individually, these diseases are rare, collectively, they are common,” said Christopher P. Austin, M.D., at a recent virtual NIH conference. “The lives of rare disease patients are every bit as important as the lives of COVID patients. If we move heaven and earth to diagnose and treat COVID patients, we need to do this for rare disease patients, too.”
