Vice President Noli de Castro called on the Department of Health and private medical practitioners to enhance cooperation to fight the spread of hepatitis B through an effective vaccination program.


De Castro told the delegates to the 3rd Hepa B Summit that was recently held at the Renaissance Hotel in Makati, that at least eight million Filipinos are infected with the hepatitis B virus, which could cause liver cancer. He said health statistics also show that about 7,000 Filipinos have been found to have liver cancer, likely due to hepatitis B.
