## Summary

**Would designate March as Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism Awareness Month to boost public education and prevention.** The resolution says DVT and PE affect up to 900,000 people each year and cause an estimated 60,000 to 100,000 deaths, with 1 in 4 pulmonary embolism victims dying without warning. It highlights higher risk for cancer patients and pregnant people, with risk elevated up to three months after giving birth, and notes immobility, surgery, older age, and inherited clotting conditions increase risk.
