Bill Summary
For legislation to designate May 6 as Moyamoya Disease Awareness Day. State Administration and Regulatory Oversight.
AI Summary
This bill designates May 6 as Moyamoya Disease Awareness Day in the state of Massachusetts. Moyamoya is a rare neurovascular condition that causes the walls of the internal carotid arteries to become thickened and narrowed, reducing blood flow and increasing the risk of transient ischemic attacks and strokes. The bill requires the governor to issue an annual proclamation setting apart May 6 as Moyamoya Awareness Day and recommending that the day be observed in an appropriate manner by the people to raise awareness of this condition.
