Today, we raise awareness of viral hepatitis — a silent yet serious threat that causes inflammation of the liver, leading to severe disease and liver cancer.

📊 In 2022:
🔹 304 million people were living with chronic hepatitis B and C
🔹 Only 45% of newborns received the hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours
🔹 1.3 million lives were lost to hepatitis B and C

This year’s theme is a call to dismantle the barriers – financial, social, and systemic – that prevent people from accessing life-saving services. Hepatitis B and C are preventable, treatable, and in the case of hepatitis C, curable.

It’s time to:
✔️ Increase testing and treatment
✔️ Improve vaccine access
✔️ Integrate care into everyday health services
✔️ Eliminate stigma

Together, we can work toward eliminating hepatitis as a public health threat by 2030.

Let’s break it down and build a healthier future.
