Stigma can affect a person’s ability to seek help, support, testing or treatment. Throughout July we’re running a month-long campaign, highlighting stigma and how you can take action to challenge it. #HepCULater #WeAreNHS #StigmaKills

I am a Harm Reductionist, however I can’t use drugs safely so I chose abstinence. Today, I celebrate 22 years of continuous abstinence. This is massive achievement as I battled with my drug use, spending 7 years in and out of prison, harming everyone I came into contact with 🩷

👀 Most people with Hepatitis C don’t show symptoms for years. But when they do, watch out for: 😴 Constant fatigue 🟡 Yellowing eyes or skin (jaundice) 🍽️ Loss of appetite 🧠 Brain fog 🤢 Nausea or abdominal pain If these sound familiar — it’s time to get tested. #HepatitisC

An essential part of taking action on stigma is education. Stigma can come from a lack of awareness. Help us take action on stigma by urging your colleagues to complete this CPD accredited training on basic #hepC awareness: orlo.uk/b8CoG #HepCULater #StigmaKills

Hepatitis C is often called the "silent" infection because many people live with it for decades without symptoms. It can lead to serious liver damage if left untreated. Don't wait for signs. #HepatitisC #HepC #KnowYourStatus #LiverHealth
