World Hepatitis Day
28 July 2012
Hepatitis Australia believes that World Hepatitis Day will prompt all Australians to think about the huge scale of viral hepatitis infection globally. On World Hepatitis Day, Hepatitis Australia asks that Australians join with us and show their support by talking openly and supportively about viral hepatitis and liver health.Wherever you are, let’s talk about viral hepatitis on World Hepatitis Day and help create a healthier and more supportive community together.
