(ANSA) - Rome, February 28 - President Sergio Mattarella said
Tuesday that it is a Constitutional obligation to help sufferers
of rare diseases. "Our Constitution protects health as a
fundamental right of every person and an interest for the whole
collectivity," Mattarella said on world rare diseases day. "It
is a full right that cannot be compressed and concerns the
dignity and freedom of each person. The challenge of less well
known illnesses and limited public resources cannot exempt us
from trying to fully respect the Charter".
