Hepatitis B & C: Vaccination, and Treatment Costs

Hepatitis B and C are viral infections that primarily affect the liver, causing both acute and chronic diseases. Globally, they contribute significantly to the burden of liver-related morbidity and mortality, including cirrhosis and liver cancer. Despite being preventable and manageable, these infections remain major public health concerns, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Understanding their modes of transmission, prevention methods, and the financial burden of treatment is crucial in combating their spread.
