There’s nothing physiologic to support gender based diferences in hemoglobin or ferritin Instead it’s tolerating iron deficiency and results in many women left undiagnosed and untreated with real consequences . Let’s be equitable and diagnose anemia the same for men and women

A Sickle Warrior and a leader in the Sickle cell and Bioethics worlds. May he rest in Peace. #Conquersicklecell #Advocate4sickle

Dr. Haywood was a #gentlegiant in the #sicklecell field. He was a brilliant researcher and colleague. His loss will affect many. I hope his family knows the depth of our ❤️for their child. He will not be forgotten. #SickleCellAwareness
