It looks like a lot of new effort is being placed into ridding the world of the rh disease once and for all.
The CURhE (Consortium for Universal Rh disease Elimination) is a global alliance set up to eradicate Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and the Newborn (HDFN), a well-understood condition which, since 1970, is easily and cheaply preventable. Nearly fifty years ago a way of preventing HDFN was developed that almost overnight saved some 10,000 fetuses and newborn babies every year just in the United States: a true “miracle of modern medicine”. But the tragedy eliminated here in North America and in Europe still haunts much of the world. Every year more than 300,000 babies die or are severely damaged by HDFN. Now a newly formed coalition of researchers, practitioners, NGO’s and industry partners is determined to change that.
Mission
Global implementation of well-documented prevention methods of Rh disease in order to reduce childhood neurological burden and perinatal deaths.
Goals
– For every woman to know her blood type
– For every Rh-negative woman to have unfettered prenatal access to counseling and prophylaxis
– For the cost of Rh disease prevention to be embedded in existing prenatal and peripartum care, not to exceed $1 pp (adjusted to national population)

I as an AB Negative read everything I can lay my eyes on regarding my status.
However I get very annoyed and upset with speculation on where we came from etc. I do believe strongly that as Earth has now been proven to be more than millions of years old, why should civilizations not have been seeded from deep Space and constellations beyond our imagination.
I KNOW that I am “different” – both mentally and physically. I actually do not enjoy or understand the thinking of many Earth people and feel daily that I do not belong here. My views are ALWAYS taken out of context because I see things differently. I love deeply and sincerely, but find that I get let down and rejected time and time again, simply because something I said was misunderstood.
Physically I was born with no appendix, but I do have a longer than normal colon. My mother was born with no tonsils.
I am very much a Senior Citizen and have lived a very healthy life throughout. No one sees my physical exterior as nearly 80. I am always seen as much younger.
These are just a few recognizable traits of me.
