Hepatitis B Virus
Posted by Lloyd Y. Asato | Filed under Poetics of Peet's
Hepatitis B virus is a silent killer of Asians and this needs to stop. There is a test for the Hepatitis B virus. If you are negative for the Hepatitis B virus, there are vaccines that can be administered to protect you from getting HBV. If you are positive for HBV there are new treatments and management strategies that will improve outcomes and save lives.
Chronic HBV affects 1 in 10 Asians, and 1 in 4 of those affected will die of liver cancer. This needs to stop. There is a test and there is a vaccine.
Get the facts, get tested, and scream.
Stop this silent killer.
