Today is #WorldCOPDDay. I’m joining Asthma + Lung UK to help raise awareness of the need for more research into COPD. Less than 1% of UK public funding is spent on COPD even though it affects > 1 million people. Find out more here: blf.org.uk/copd BREATH Plus
Even though 1:13 adults in Ireland have #COPD just 1:45 adults have a diagnosis - diagnosis allows for treatment but we mustn’t wait for medical emergencies before this happens COPD Support Ireland
