World Hepatitis Day 2021

World Hepatitis Day 2021

With a person dying every 30 seconds from a hepatitis related illness – even in the current COVID-19 crisis – we can’t wait to act on viral hepatitis.

People living with viral hepatitis unaware can’t wait for testing

People living with hepatitis can’t wait for life saving treatments

Expectant mothers can’t wait for hepatitis screening and treatment

Newborn babies can’t wait for birth dose vaccination

People affected by hepatitis can’t wait to end stigma and discrimination

Community organisations can’t wait for greater investment

Decision makers can’t wait and must act now to make hepatitis elimination a reality through political will and funding.
