To echo the World Arthritis Day (12th Oct) as designated by the World Health Organisation, Hong Kong Arthritis & Rheumatism Foundation partnered with RTHK to launch a series of radio interviews on rheumatic diseases. Rheumatologists were invited to share the information concerning the aetiology, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of the disease; social workers talked about the information on community resources and disease self-help groups; patients shared their stories regarding how they fight against the disease and lived with a positive attitude. The five consecutive episodes were broadcasted every Wednesday at 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm from 4 September 2019 to 2 October 2019. You are welcome to listen to the program below.
