I just saw a NSW Health Facebook post stating that there is an uptick in syphilis cases in Sydney, and the comments were like 3000 men tagging in their mates with a "this you?".

And they say white Australia doesn't have culture.

Every year on July 28, the world unites to raise awareness about viral hepatitis — a silent but deadly disease that causes liver inflammation, cirrhosis, and liver cancer. In 2019 alone, 78,000 people died from acute hepatitis complications, and chronic hepatitis B, C, and D cause over 1 million deaths annually.

This year’s theme emphasizes breaking down barriers like stigma, misinformation, and lack of access to testing and treatment. Simplifying and scaling up hepatitis services is key to eliminating hepatitis as a global health threat by 2030.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘀
- Hepatitis B and C cause over 95% of hepatitis-related deaths worldwide.
- WHO aims to reduce new hepatitis infections by 90% and deaths by 65% by 2030.
- Vaccination, early diagnosis, and treatment are essential tools to prevent liver disease progression.
- Pregnant women should be tested and treated to avoid mother-to-child transmission.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗽
- Get vaccinated for hepatitis A and B.
- Practice safe sex and avoid sharing needles.
- Maintain good hygiene and avoid sharing personal items.
- Encourage regular screening for hepatitis, especially in high-risk groups.
- Support efforts to integrate hepatitis services into national healthcare systems.

World Hepatitis Day honors Dr. Baruch Samuel Blumberg, who discovered the hepatitis B virus and developed its vaccine. His birthday, July 28, marks this global awareness day.

Together, we can break down barriers and build a hepatitis-free future.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺𝗲: Global Action, Local Impact: Empowering Communities for Effective Self-Advocacy

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗜𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀:
Sickle cell disease (SCD) affects over 300,000 births globally every year, with a large burden in low- and middle-income countries like India. It disproportionately impacts marginalized communities, especially tribal populations who face socioeconomic challenges. Awareness and early diagnosis are crucial to reduce complications and improve quality of life.

𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆:
World Sickle Cell Day was established by the United Nations in 2008 to spotlight sickle cell disease as a major genetic health concern. The day promotes public education, encourages screening, and supports affected individuals and families worldwide.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗣𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲:
- Sickle cell disease is a genetic blood disorder causing abnormal red blood cells that affect oxygen delivery.
- Early diagnosis through newborn screening and blood tests is vital.
- Communities need empowerment to advocate for better healthcare access and support.
- Knowing your sickle cell trait status helps in family planning and prevention strategies.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗛𝗲𝗹𝗽:
- Get tested or encourage others to get screened, especially before pregnancy.
- Support local and global awareness campaigns.
- Share accurate information about SCD symptoms, treatment, and prevention.
- Advocate for better healthcare policies and resources for affected communities.

Let’s unite on 19 June 2025 to empower communities and create lasting change for people living with sickle cell disease.
