On Wednesday 21 March 2012, the Launch of European COPD Coalition and Call to Action on COPD took place at the European Parliament, and was hosted by MEP Glenis Willmott.
COPD stands for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. COPD is a long-term lung and airways disease that is not curable.
A report of the meeting is available as well as a short video that was displayed at the event and that clearly presents the spectrum of the disease.
