World Thyroid Day 2018
25.05.2018
In 2008, the European Thyroid Association (ETA) (www.eurothyroid.com) and American Thyroid Association (ATA) (www.thyroid.org) joined forces to create, for the first time ever, a day to be devoted globally to the Thyroid Gland and its numerous and often ‘invisible’ symptoms, and in 2009, a yearly commemorative ‘day of the thyroid’, May 25th, was firmly established as World Thyroid Day (WTD) and endorsed by all sister associations. Since that time it has been celebrated annually round the globe together with its extension, International Thyroid Awareness Week, which ‘surrounds’ the main Day.
