Please pick up a watermelon, milk and crackers. BTW, we need 40 more tablets to screening for #HCV, #HBV & #COVID19 in Uzbekistan. Yes, the #UHEP project is restarting. Screened 28K people with the goal of testing & treating 250K https://t.co/Ab89PXY21G

We're excited to announce that @PolarisObserv is BACK ONLINE thanks to the generous support of the John C. Martin Foundation, @GileadSciences and @abbvie. Now includes #HBV and #HCV Progress-to-Elimination dashboard displaying key metrics for 100+ countries. #EndHep #NoHep

Stopped by on a very cold day to see the incredible work that @brugernes is leading in Copenhagen on hepatitis C testing among people who inject drugs. @DemantJonas @Oevrehusdk @GPRO_Fund @INHepSU @EASLedu #NOhep

@swang8 found out she was living with #hepatitis B in college. Today, she is our President-elect. Watch her inspirational story -

Someone must have peed in my Wheaties this morning. I'm feeling a scoche cantankerous. But seems to be a flurry of articles about why little or no progress on #Hep, #Marlaria, #UHC. Hint: Short-term thinking, poor strategy, inadequate funding. Just getting warmed up, too...

[World Hepatitis Alliance @Hep_Alliance]

Catalytic financing strategies may be required to fully fund national viral #hepatitis elimination programmes.

It's likely that financing may need to come from a combination of domestic funding, patient payments and external sources - find out more at https://t.co/EMmTNz6xCF

“Diagnostic tests for HBV and HCV must be affordable, feasible and of good quality”.

Our #FindtheMissingMillions Advocacy Resource will be launched tomorrow. Alongside tips and case studies, it will offer an up to date and detailed diagnostics landscape. #WatchThisSpace.

The first African Hepatitis Summit will take place June 18-20 in Uganda, bringing together delegates from African Civil Society groups, @WHO members, CDC, patient orgs, policy makers and public health scientists. Learn more and register today! #hepatitis #HBV #hepB #HCV #NOhep

[Rick Dunn @RickJDunn]

Cost of DAAs not the barrier to elimination it once was per @MargaretHellard. Financing the cost of diagnostics is key. We agree! We have scalable model @GPRO_Fund and will test this year via #UHEP. 250K to be screened; 20K treated. @CDAFound #ILC2019 @Homie_Razavi #NOhep

[Rick Dunn @RickJDunn]

Absolutely. Treatment guidelines are applicable to liver disease. Treat-All is applicable to elimination efforts. Thanks @JJFeld for mentioning Uzbekistan #uhep program where we will test this. @Homie_Razavi @CDAFound

[Jeffrey V. Lazarus @JVLazarus]

Checking out the hepatitis C testing van behind the main train station in Copenhagen. Peer-led, stigma-free rapid HCV tests for people who inject drugs. Oh and linkage to care...! #ILC2019 #NoHep

[Rick Dunn @RickJDunn]

The lack of funding continues to be the single greatest obstacle to achieving @WHO #HCV 2030 elimination goals. All the conferences, all the papers, all the hard work of countless passionate people can't change the fact that broad success requires funding. #UHEP

[Rick Dunn @RickJDunn]

Interesting @CNBC article on #NASH with contribution by @Homie_Razavi @CDAFound. Earlier version stated that #HepC had been "eradicated" so glad to see that they revised it - MUCH work remains in order to reach that goal...

@CDAFound is proud to have been part of the @vaccineimpact consortium. We and Tim Hallet's group modeled the impact of HBV BD vaccination & associated lives saved.

Is it just me who thinks #globalhealth has too many meetings, summits & declarations- and not enough of the actual substance of getting things done?

[The AIDS Institute @AIDSadvocacy]

#ICYMI from @PennLDI: In economic models and in real-world practice, identifying patients with hepatitis C infection and linking them to early treatment provides good value for our health care dollar. https://t.co/h0xc4woyPX

Great to see @brugernes continuing the work to #FindtheMisingMilliions!

[BrugernesAkademi @brugernes]

I går var vi i Århus og teste for hepC. Vi parkerede den mobile klinik i den gamle Nålepark. Tak til de frivillige sygeplejersker, @christinast1980 og alle de mennesker, der kom forbi.

[The AIDS Institute @AIDSadvocacy]

#HeptatitisC is curable & preventable, but if left untreated can lead to liver cancer. As rates of new cases are rising amidst the #OpioidEpidemic, the national response must include resources dedicated to preventing, tracking & curing the spread of #hepC. https://t.co/QLawEi2V5U
