I found it interesting but the sound went out as soon as Dr. Merkel starting talking so I feel I missed the best part. The first speaker said most autoimmune disease seems to prefer women, but a few prefer men, and some are equal opportunity diseases. He said vasculitis can strike any part of the human body. It can be life threatening and requires aggressive treatment which is usually effective although relapse is very common. AI illnesses affect 5-8% of population which make it one of the top ten diseases. It seems more prevalent further away from the Poles.

I wonder if it is recorded somewhere so we could try view it again for those who missed it?

i had no trouble hearing dr merkel at all...the doctors made me laugh listening to them try to figure out the mouse and the turning of the pages etc.

Yes dzr they mentioned at the end that the entire webinar will be on their site sometime next week.

I wonder if they will clean up the doctors muttering to themselves. lol
