Lupus is a condition where someone’s immune system attacks their own body, including healthy tissue and cells, leaving them with debilitating conditions like exhaustion, extreme weight gain, organ failure and pain. It can lead to death.
It disproportionately affects black women but very little is known about the condition in Africa and statistics are hard to come by.
In today's episode, Alan Kasujja speaks to two women in South Africa who are determined to change this.
GUESTS: Palesa Ramakatsa and Una Van Rhyn is the founder of the Andreas Gift Foundation
