Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Day at ABC Verdun

On September 20, 2025, as part of Pulmonary Fibrosis Awareness Month, the Hamdi Al Zaim Interstitial Lung Disease Center at AUBMC held an activation event at ABC Verdun to engage the public, raise awareness about lung fibrosis, and highlight the importance of early detection.

Visitors participated in breathing games, received educational resources, and had the chance to take a spirometry test to check their lung health — all under the guidance of the Center's medical team.

Together, we continue to advocate for better awareness, earlier diagnosis, and improved care for patients living with pulmonary fibrosis and other rare lung diseases.
