World Hepatitis Day (WHD) is observed every year on 28th July. On this day efforts are made to raise awareness of the different types of viral hepatitis under one theme. This day aims at making significant change in the healthcare field by uniting patient organizations, medical professionals, governments and general public and spread awareness of viral hepatitis. So, On this DAY, is an opportunity to boost the efforts of WHO’s strategy to help countries eliminate hepatitis. On this day, it is the birthday of Nobel –Prize winning scientist Dr. Baruch Blumberg, who discovered hepatitis B virus (HBV) and developed a diagnostic test and vaccine for the virus. In India, 40 million people are chronically infected with hepatitis B; 6 to 12 million people are chronically infected with hepatitis C. HEV is the most important cause of epidemic hepatitis, HAV is more common among children. Most acute liver failures diagnosed are attributable to HEV. Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C are the major cause of chronic liver disease and liver cancer in the world. Hepatitis B is a vaccine-preventable disease. Although federal public health officials recommend that all new borns, children, and at-risk adults receive the vaccine, about 46,000 new acute cases of the HBV infection emerge each year, including 1,000 in infants who acquire the infection during birth from their HBV-positive mothers. Unfortunately, there is no vaccine for hepatitis C, which is transmitted by direct exposure to infectious blood. The burden of infection is highest in the WHO Western Pacific Region and the WHO African Region, where 116 million and 81 million people, respectively, are chronically infected. India falls under the category of intermediate endemicity zone (average of 4%). A balanced Diet; Be careful with vitamins, herbals and minerals use; Light Daily Exercise; Vaccination, particularly for HBV, and where appropriate HAV and HEV (a HEV vaccine has been developed and licensed in China, but is not yet widely available); Injection, blood and surgical safety and universal precautions; Prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HBV. Each Year, more than a million lives are lost to hepatitis- We aren't waiting to change that, we’re fighting to making it happen. Join the movement and make your voice heard We aren't waiting I Pledge to end Hepatitis Thus, Hepatitis Day is an ideal opportunity for us to come together and raise awareness about viral hepatitis among people.
