It is all welcome news to the porphyria community at large. In some families porphyria affects at least half of all family members. This pattern is known as autosomal dominant. There is still no cures for any of the types of porphyria. And while intervention and preventive therapies exist, none as fullproof for all porphyria patients.
Porphyria research needs to move to the forefront of medical science research.
This takes a lot of funding. To obtain such funding we have to continue to educate others about the need for porphyria research. Better yet, we have to teach others about porphyria in the first place.
