Next Sunday, July 28, marks World Hepatitis Day. This disease is responsible for high levels of morbidity and mortality worldwide.
For this reason, the Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) Division, under the Health Secretariat of the Municipality of Concordia, held an awareness and prevention day regarding types of hepatitis and vaccination at Plaza 25 de Mayo.
Tatiana Moreira, head of the STI Division, reported that there are different types of hepatitis: A, B, and C. She also remarked that “it is a sexually transmitted disease which involves our area; of course, it is where we provide all the guidelines for prevention and answer any questions one may have regarding transmission, signs, and symptoms,” she detailed.
In that sense, she commented that “this is why we carried out an awareness day on sexually transmitted diseases at the Concordia Convention Center. We have been asked to hold another session open to the public, which will be on August 1st starting at 10:00 a.m. in the Assembly Hall of the Municipality,” she informed.
