Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of inherited red blood cell disorders. SCD causes symptoms ranging from pain, to organ damage, to anemia. In the United States, sickle cell disease is most prevalent among African Americans, although it can be found in people of all races. About one in 12 African Americans carry the sickle cell trait, which means they are carriers of the disease. In addition, 1 of every 400 African Americans have sickle cell disease. People of Hispanic and Asian descent are also disproportionately affected by the disease.
