📅 July 28
📌 Theme: “Hepatitis: Let’s Break It Down”
This year’s theme calls for bold action to dismantle stigma, simplify access to care, and eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030. 💪

🔹 Hepatitis B is 100x more infectious than HIV — yet preventable with a vaccine.
🔹 Hepatitis C is curable with modern treatment.
🔹 A simple blood test can save a life.
Know the facts. Break the stigma. Get tested. Get vaccinated.
