🌍 World Hepatitis Day 2025
“One Liver. One Life. One Chance.”
Update from Dr. Chetan Kalal | Liver Transplant & Hepatology Expert | Mumbai | Global Patients
⚠️ Hepatitis & Liver Failure: A Growing Global Crisis
Every 30 seconds, someone in the world dies of a hepatitis-related illness — often without ever knowing they had liver disease.
In India alone:
Over 40 million people live with chronic Hepatitis B or C
Rising cases of fatty liver (MAFLD/NAFLD) are silently progressing to cirrhosis
Thousands miss the right time for liver transplant because of delayed diagnosis
👉 But early detection and expert transplant planning can reverse the risk and save lives.
