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.

🤧 Top Tips to Prevent and Stop the Spread of Colds

Catching a cold is never fun — and spreading one is even worse. If you're powering through your day while feeling under the weather, take a few simple steps to protect those around you (and yourself!):

🧼 Wash your hands often with warm soapy water or use hand sanitiser when you’re out and about

🚫 Keep hands away from your face — it’s one of the quickest ways germs spread

😷 Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your elbow

💉 Get your flu shot early to protect against seasonal illness

💊 Support your immune system with supplements like zinc, garlic, olive leaf, or vitamin C

🚭 Quit smoking – it weakens your immune system and can prolong a cold

🥗 Eat well, sleep well, and keep moving to help your body stay strong

Need help choosing the right immune support or flu protection?

📍 Come and see us - we’re here to help you stay well this winter!
