What is World Kidney Day?
“World Kidney Day 2017 called out globally for a healthier lifestyle, linking obesity and kidney disease, a colorful campaign online and in communities everywhere.
In March, World Kidney Day (WKD) brought together members of the global medical community and general public to highlight the importance of kidney health. This time, the campaign set its sights on communicating about how obesity can affect our kidney health.”
