🟣 Living with systemic #lupus erythematosus can be a daily challenge for over 200,000 people across Europe, many of whom live with physical disabilities.

In fact, our Living With Lupus 2020 survey reveals the profound impact #SLE can have:

🔹 57.9% of respondents said SLE negatively affected their careers.
🔹 Nearly 50% faced challenges in daily activities, from studying to family life.
🔹 Fatigue remains the most reported symptom, affecting 85.3% of patients.

🦋 These figures highlight the need for greater awareness, inclusivity, and tailored support for those living with disabilities or chronic conditions like lupus.

🔊 On this International Day of Persons with Disabilities, let’s raise awareness to build a society where barriers are reduced and opportunities are accessible for all.
