The World Health Organization (WHO) recognizing Viral Hepatitis as a critical health issue that requires worldwide attention has assigned 28 July as World Hepatitis Day. In Malaysia, a committee chaired by Professor Rosmawati, hepatologist of the University of Malaya Medical Centre is organizing a number of events to mark the day and draw public attention to the dreaded disease.
This is the first nationwide campaign of its type; 21 participating sites across the country will be taking part in this campaign. The main focus of the campaign will be to raise awareness of hepatitis and to drive initiatives to improve prevention, diagnosis as well as treatment for hepatitis B and C.
