September 2010
The Tri-County Polycythemia Vera Community Advisory Committee was formed as a result of the discovery of a cluster of Polycythemia Vera (PV) patients in Luzerne, Schuylkill and Carbon counties in Pennsylvania. Their role is in part to educate the community about PV. On September 22nd the Committee is hosting a meeting to allow residents to meet with MPD researchers about the causes of the outbreak as well as more information on PV.
