一人一生,一個肝臟

 

你只有一次生命,只有一個肝臟。而病毒性炎可以摧毁肝臟與生命。

你的肝臟每天默默地執行500多種生理重要功能,以维持你的生命。

但病毒性肝炎稱之為沉默殺手,肝炎感染是默默無病兆的,只有在病重后才會出現症状。

病毒性肝炎總共有五型肝炎病毒(從A型、B型、C型、D型到E型病毒性肝炎),

其中B型和C型肝炎最令人擔憂,每天導致近8000例新發生的感染病例,而這些感染者大多皆還未被發現與治療。

結果呢?每年有100多萬人死于肝炎,每10秒就有1例新的慢性肝炎感染病例。

所以,肝臟健康對人類健康至關重要,預防病毒性肝炎就可以避免大量肝炎死亡。

現今已有B型肝炎疫苗並有效的治療方法,甚至還有治癒C型肝炎的方法,你可以保護自己和所爱的人。

如有相關病毒性肝炎問題可與衛生所聯繫,了解如何保護自己免於受到肝炎傷害。

One life, one liver

You’ve only got one life, and you’ve only got one liver. Hepatitis can devastate both.

Your liver silently performs over 500 vital functions every single day to keep you alive.

But viral hepatitis infection is also silent, with symptoms only appearing once the disease is advanced. Although there are many different types of hepatitis viruses (A to E), hepatitis B and C are the most concerning and cause nearly 8000 new infections every day, which are mostly going undetected.

The result? Over one million hepatitis-related deaths every single year – and one new chronic infection every ten seconds. And that’s why liver health is fundamental to human health.

So many hepatitis deaths could be prevented. Because there are vaccines and effective treatments for hepatitis B and even a cure for hepatitis C - you CAN protect yourself and your loved ones.

Speak to your local healthcare provider to find out how to protect yourself from hepatitis.
