HERE IS JD ERA ROCKING THE SPOT AT THE HIP HOP CANADA SHOW SUPPORTING ONE MATCH
PT 2 OF ERA's PERFORMANCE AND JAYDAHMANN
- Leukemia is the biggest cause of cancer mortality in Canadians under the age of 24.
- Beating Leukemia requires a stem cell transplant and a stem cell transplant requires an ETHNIC MATCH.
- 85% of the registry is Caucasian and every other ethnic group in Canada makes up the remaining 15%. To put that in perspective, 0.5% of over 220,000 Canadians registered are Black Canadians and every other ethnic minority in Canada has similar statistics. If a Black Canadian, for example, requires a stem cell transplant, the odds of finding a compatible match are VERY LOW.
