May is recognized as Hepatitis Awareness Month, with a focus on eliminating viral hepatitis through testing, vaccination, and treatment. Organizations like the CDC and WHO emphasize the importance of education, testing, and partnerships to achieve the goal of eradicating hepatitis by 2030. Hepatitis, particularly Hep B, poses significant health risks, including being the leading cause of liver cancer globally. Recommendations include testing all adults at least once for hepatitis B and C, and pregnant individuals during each pregnancy.
