The purpose of this resolution is to support the establishment of November 12, 2025, as "Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) Awareness Day." The goal is to raise awareness about CJD, a rare and fatal brain disorder that falls under a category of diseases known as prion diseases. Key provisions of the resolution include an acknowledgment of the seriousness of CJD, which affects about 1 to 2 people per million each year in the United States, leading to approximately 600 cases annually. Most cases are sporadic, with no known cause, while a smaller percentage are genetic or acquired.
