Oct - Liver Cancer Awareness Month
2024-10-01 08:00 - 17:00 UTC
October is Liver Cancer Awareness Month. Help us spread awareness about #LiverCancer so that people can get diagnosed early and save lives – Ask your doctor about liver cancer surveillance today.
A month devoted to the importance of liver awareness gives you the opportunity to focus on the important role the liver plays. You can also learn about different forms of liver disease including the threat posed by obesity and fatty livers.
Much of the associations’s emphasis during October continues to point to the cause and treatment for liver diseases like hepatitis A, B and C; cirrhosis, biliary atresia and liver cancer.

Every year, more than a million lives are lost to hepatitis. We’re not waiting for change – we’re fighting to make it happen.

People living with viral hepatitis unaware can’t wait for testing
People living with hepatitis can’t wait for life saving treatments
Expectant mothers can’t wait for hepatitis screening and treatment
Newborn babies can’t wait for birth dose vaccination
People affected by hepatitis can’t wait to end stigma and discrimination
Community organisations can’t wait for greater investment
Decision makers can’t wait and must act now to make hepatitis elimination a reality through political will and funding.

We’re not waiting
‘We’re not waiting’ is call to action for World Hepatitis Day 2024. It’s a call to accelerate elimination efforts of viral hepatitis now and the urgent need for testing and treatment for the real people who need it.
Individuals and communities around the world are making change happen in their own lives and in world around them. We celebrate them, while demanding more action.
