Hepatitis B: Silent Killer

I have heard Mark Lim, a medical doctor who died of hepatitis B. He is an asian doctor who died of liver cancer due to hepatitis b at the age of 33. He was a young man, teeming with dreams and aspirations but these were snatched from him due to the deadly disease that afflicts one of 10 Asians today.

Its is sad to know that despite of the many industrial developments known to Asian countries nowadays, health remains to be a number one issue. Our politicians should reform our current laws and mandate a full vaccination of all newborns and those who have not yet received hepatitis b vaccines.

Vaccines save lives! Join the fight agaisnt Hepatitis B and Liver Cancer!
