Osteoporosis is a bone disease that occurs when the body loses too much bone, makes too little bone, or both that makes the bone more likely to break. It is often called “silent disease” because bone loss can’t be seen or felt. As a result, many people don’t know they have it until they break a bone.
According to research results, 3 from every 10 women over the age of 50 will break a bone due to osteoporosis in her lifetime. So, Amgen set many awareness campaigns to increase awareness of this disease and encourage people to understand the risk of having osteoporosis.
On 5th May 2019 Infomine with Amgen successfully achieved an official Guinness World Records title for the most osteoporosis screenings in 24 hours and managed to encourage more than 3000 participants in Egypt to understand what Osteoporosis is and what they should do for osteoporosis’s prevention.
Amgen come back with new awareness campaign “Mattksresh- ماتتكسريش “in Egypt with the participation of Infomine’s PDS Team, our main goal from this campaign is to educate the public about the risks of osteoporosis, and encourage them to think about if they are at risk of having the disease to raise their awareness for early detection and prevention of osteoporosis.
