From Antonio López Huesca, President, HAE Mexico

The Mexican Association of Hereditary Angioedema (AMAEH) is pleased to share the activities we are carrying out in Mexico during the month of May, in commemoration of hae day :-).

Our awareness campaign has included organizing visibility walks in various states of Mexico, four of which have already been held with great success:

  • Two in Mexico City, the second of which took place on the city’s main avenue, with significant participation and visibility.
  • The third in San Luis Potosí, with a special theme for Children’s Day, achieved an excellent response from the community.
  • The fourth in Guasave, Sinaloa, with strong local participation.

These activities have had a very positive impact, as many people have learned about our association for the first time and have approached us seeking information, guidance, and support.

We had two more walks on May 8th, held in Cardel, Veracruz, and Delicias, Chihuahua.

As part of this campaign, we also invite patients and caregivers to participate by sharing personal videos about their experience living with HAE, addressing the challenges of diagnosis, the impact on their daily lives, and the importance of raising awareness. These testimonials will be published throughout May on our social media channels, with the goal of raising awareness and giving a voice to those living with this rare disease.

These initiatives reflect our commitment to continue raising awareness, promoting timely diagnosis, and strengthening the patient community in Mexico.
