Thousands of Danes are living with a dangerous, hereditary disease, prompting concerns about transmission to future generations. The disease poses significant health challenges for those affected and their families.

The primary concern for many individuals is the risk of passing the condition on to their children. This uncertainty creates emotional distress and impacts family planning decisions. Genetic testing and counseling are available to help families understand their risk and make informed choices.

While the exact number of those affected is still being investigated, it is clear that this hereditary disease represents a significant public health concern in Denmark. Efforts are underway to improve diagnosis, treatment, and support services for individuals and families affected by the condition. Research into the genetic basis of the disease is also ongoing, with the hope of developing more effective therapies and potentially even a cure. The focus remains on providing comprehensive care and support to those living with this challenging condition.
