April 11 | World 🌎 Parkinson's Day
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is progressive, meaning symptoms get worse over time.
Common symptoms include:
I.Motor:
🔸Slow movement
🔸Tremors
🔸Rigidity
🔸Balance problems
🔸Involuntary movement
II.Non-motor:
🔻Dementia
🔻Anxiety & depression
🔻Sleep disorders
🔻Pain & sensory issues
PD often leads to disability and the need for long-term care.
It typically affects older adults, but younger people can be affected too.
We must push for better awareness, diagnosis, and care—especially in low-resource settings.

Parkinson’s Treatment: Managing, Not Curing
💊There’s still no cure for Parkinson’s disease but there are treatments that can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life
🥼These therapies boost mobility, independence, and reduce stress on caregivers.
⚕️But access isn’t equal. In many low- and middle-income countries, including parts of Ethiopia 🇪🇹, essential medicines and therapies remain unaffordable or unavailable.
We must push for better access to care—everywhere.

Parkinson’s in Ethiopia🇪🇹: A Silent Struggle
🧮 Globally the prevalence of PD has doubled in the past 25 years, but in Ethiopia, it’s under recognized.
📝In Ethiopia 🇪🇹, the incidence rate is estimated at just 1.3 per 100,000 (2018) .
This is likely underreported. Compare this with:
📝UK: 16.5 per 100,000
📝Japan: 183.9 per 100,000
📝Nigeria: 3.3 per 100,000
Why is this important?
♦️Lack of awareness, limited diagnostic access, and low reporting may hide the real burden
♦️Many patients go undiagnosed until symptoms are severe
♦️In Ethiopia🇪🇹, we face more than just motor symptoms.
📋A 2020 study found that 79.5% of Ethiopian PD patients suffer from distressing fatigue, one of the highest rates globally.
Let’s shine a light on Parkinson’s in Ethiopia—because every patient deserves to be seen.

🌟 Wisdom Wednesday
Dr. Frank Peter Hochman – Deaf Before It Was “Allowed”
🕰🩺
Born in 1935 and Deaf since birth, Dr. Frank Hochman became a physician when the idea of a Deaf doctor was unthinkable.
His career in medicine challenged the norms of his time and opened doors for future Deaf professionals.
🧠 Frank didn't wait for permission , he made space.
👐 SCORP stands with every person daring to go first; the pioneers, the fighters, the ones who show us it’s possible.
Let’s keep making space — inclusive, accessible, and just. ✨
