Ahead of World Hepatitis Testing Week, join World Hepatitis Alliance for a webinar to explore the importance of hepatitis B testing in antenatal settings.
Tuesday November 5, 5 AM Pacific time.
Ending vertical transmission of hepatitis B is key to achieving hepatitis elimination. 254 million people are living with hepatitis B worldwide, with the majority of people infected as infants through mother-to-child transmission. This is largely being driven due to a lack of testing, with only 13% of people living with hepatitis B having been diagnosed.
The webinar will look at the critical role testing can play in not only preventing mother-to-child transmission but also unlocking wider diagnosis opportunities for their family members and so driving elimination efforts.
