All events in this series - Hepatitis Awareness Month (May)
May is Hepatitis Awareness Month— a time to raise awareness that viral hepatitis continues to be a major public health threat in the United States. Hepatitis Awareness Month provides an opportunity to recognize people affected by viral hepatitis, the tireless work of our public health partners, and the progress we have made in both preventing new infections and improving the lives of those with viral hepatitis. Observances such as National Hispanic Hepatitis Awareness Day (May 15) and National Hepatitis Testing Day (May 19) provide further opportunities to promote interventions that prevent viral hepatitis and encourage testing to identify the millions of Americans with these often-undiagnosed infections.
