World Cider Day
This day is celebrated to honor the history and culture of cider making and consumption around the world. Cider is a fermented beverage made from apples or other fruits. It has been consumed in many countries for centuries. This day is an opportunity to celebrate the diversity of cider and apple beverages that exist around the world.
Insect Repellent Day
The purpose of this celebration is to draw attention to the importance of using insect repellents to prevent diseases they carry. This day is a reminder that many insects, such as mosquitoes and ticks, can transmit diseases such as West Nile virus, Lyme disease, and Zika virus. Using repellents can reduce the risk of infection with these diseases, as well as protect against bites.
World Heart Rhythm Week
It lasts for seven days, from the Tuesday of the first full week of June. The Arrhythmia Alliance initiated its introduction in 2002. It brings together doctors, charities, politicians and people suffering from heart and vascular diseases. The goal is to introduce innovations in the treatment of heart rhythm disorders.
World Clubfoot Day
Clubfoot Day coincides with the date of birth of the Spanish orthopedist Ignacio Ponseti, who invented a method for correcting foot deformities, namely plastering. Currently, the method is actively used in medicine to completely or partially eliminate the signs of leg deformity.
Parachute birthday
On June 3, 1785, the French inventor François Blanchard showed London the parachute he had developed. Thanks to this device, it was possible to safely land a dog. A year later, Blanchard repeated the experiment, but this time a ram participated in it.
Bicycle Day
This day is associated with the growing popularity of bicycles. The holiday was introduced on April 12, 2018 by the UN at the suggestion of sociologist Leszek Sibilski. The document was supported by 56 countries.
