Many babies are born with birth defects, which can affect their health and development. Some may be identified before birth, while others are diagnosed once the baby is born. With the right care and support, many children with these conditions can lead healthy lives. This World Birth Defects Day, we’re committed to raising awareness and sharing resources for education. CDC works year-round to identify risk factors for birth defects in order to support healthy pregnancies and improve care for people living with these conditions.

.@WHO is concerned by the grave risks to people's health from the conflict that is expanding across the Middle East.  The threat of nuclear facilities being impacted is especially worrying. All must be done to reduce any nuclear safety risk, which may affect people in the region. Peace, as always, is the best medicine.
