Bill > HB870

This bill designates September as "Brain Aneurysm Awareness Month" in Missouri, adding a new section to the state's legal code. The bill encourages Missouri citizens to participate in events and activities that raise awareness about brain aneurysms, a serious medical condition where a bulge or ballooning occurs in a blood vessel in the brain that can potentially rupture and cause life-threatening bleeding. By highlighting that brain aneurysms affect approximately 200,000 people annually, the bill aims to promote public understanding of this medical condition, its causes, and potential treatments. This type of legislative recognition is typically intended to increase public knowledge, support research, and show solidarity with those affected by the condition.
