Sickle cell disease is an inherited red blood cell disorder. This condition causes red blood cells to change shape into a sickle, affecting the blood's ability to carry oxygen, which can lead to many dangerous complications. However, there are also cases of people carrying the sickle cell gene but showing no symptoms of the disease.

Sickle cell disease is one of the diseases that has a high risk of leading to serious consequences in people with the disease, especially young children and infants. Until now, there is no way to cure the disease, only methods to relieve pain and prevent the disease from getting worse. Therefore, early testing for sickle cell disease is extremely necessary.

Sickle cell anemia is one of the most common genetic diseases, especially in Africa. Sickle cell anemia causes serious complications and reduces life expectancy because red blood cells are not produced. With the development of medical science, stem cell transplantation is now a special treatment method for patients with complications due to progressive disease.

Sickle cell disease is the most common inherited blood disorder in the United States and affects millions of people worldwide. The FDA says new treatments for sickle cell disease are needed to prevent and control serious complications of the disease.
