International Day of the Sick

Every year on February 11, an international social event is organized – International Day of the Sick.

The event was founded in 1992, initiated by Pope John Paul II. The day of the event was chosen according to the legend, which says that on February 11, many centuries ago, the Mother of God appeared in the city of Lourdes. The Holy Virgin came to heal sick people.

International Day of the Sick aims to attract the attention of society, doctors and politicians to the problems of sick people, to involve them in providing quality care. Until February 11, all kinds of events and promotions are organized on the topic of a healthy lifestyle, treatment and prevention of various diseases.
