Every year on October 20th, World Osteoporosis Day is observed around the world to raise awareness about the condition that has a severe impact on a person's bone health.
This medical ailment causes a person's bones to weaken. The bones of a person become so frail that they can readily break. Osteoporosis can cause repeated fractures, which can be devastating.
"Serve Up Bone Strength" is the theme of the Global WOD Campaign in 2021.
On October 20, 1996, the National Osteoporosis Society of the United Kingdom commemorated World Osteoporosis Day for the first time.
