World Hepatitis Day

World Hepatitis Day is meant to make testing easier for citizens, says coordinator of Safer Choices Northern Network Sharon Cordell.

 

From 10 to 1 on July 28th at the City Centre Mall, Safer Choices Northern Network is offering free confidential testing, free hygiene kits and door prizes for people who come to test for Hepatitis.

 

Cordell says there is usually some difficulty when testing, and that this day, will make it easier for anyone that wants to know about their health.

 

1 in 5 Canadians are unaware that they have the serious liver disease, and it may lead to cancer, cirrhosis and death if left untreated.
