                    [Summary] => Health experts have drafted a resolution asking Congress to pass a law that would make it mandatory to immunize infants against hepatitis B within 12 hours after birth.


Dr. Lulu Bravo, executive director of the Philippine Foundation for Vaccination, said the law is necessary because hepatitis B now affects more than eight million or 10 percent of Filipinos.


"If we are able to get the help of others to our cause, we can protect people against hepatitis B because (it) has a significant role in the development of liver cancer and liver cirrhosis," she said.
