Key Takeaways

  • Free hepatitis screening and specialist consultations
  • Awareness push ahead of World Hepatitis Day (WHD)

Supercare Hospital launched a comprehensive four‑day liver health initiative this week in the city. Timed to precede World Hepatitis Day, the program seeks to educate the public about hepatitis and other liver conditions.

During the campaign, hospital specialists will provide free screenings, blood tests, and personalized counseling. Attendees will receive guidance on early detection, treatment options, nutrition, lifestyle changes, and disease prevention.

World Hepatitis Day was established by the World Health Organization in 2010 to spotlight the 71 million people living with hepatitis worldwide. In India, hepatitis B and C remain prevalent, and early diagnosis can dramatically reduce mortality.

Why This Matters

BozokMedia analysis shows that early detection of liver diseases can reduce healthcare costs by up to 30% and save thousands of lives annually. This initiative not only benefits patients directly but also eases the burden on the public health system.

"Early identification of liver disease is the most effective way to save lives," said Dr. Anjali Sharma, hepatology expert.
Did You Know?: Hepatitis C often remains symptom‑free for years, allowing many carriers to unknowingly spread the virus.
