May 12th has been designated as the International Awareness Day for Chronic Immunological and Neurological Diseases (CIND) since 1992.

It marks the birthday of Florence Nightingale — the creator of ‘modern nursing.’ Early detection, sensitivity to the disease, reduced feelings of isolation in patients, and prejudice due to ignorance are all benefits of disease awareness. It also facilitates policy reforms and research. The medical community hopes to raise awareness about a variety of disorders that fall under the “Chronic Immunological and Neurological Diseases” (CIND) umbrella by commemorating this day.

The CIND illnesses include Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), Fibromyalgia (FM), Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) and Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS).
