It's time for action! On #WorldHepatitisDay 2024, Africa CDC joined hands with the Ministry of Health of Somalia to accelerate efforts against viral hepatitis. The event aimed to advocate for change and mobilize resources to implement Somalia’s National Hepatitis Strategy. Together, we are committed to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, working towards a hepatitis-free Africa. The Africa CDC continental initiative to support member states in eliminating viral hepatitis is a crucial step in this direction. #HepCantWait. Learn more ➡️ https://ow.ly/CLw150SNSG8
