A thread 🧵

{RT for awareness!} Image
First, #HepatitisB, like other viral hepatitis, loves the #liver.

Once infected, the virus goes straight to your liver, multiplies alarmingly, & tries to evade immune attacks.
In some, immune system clears the virus so they recover. In others, no, so they remain infected. Image
People who remain infected with #hepatitisB over a long period of time may develop liver issues.
Such liver problems may include #fibrosis, #cirrhosis, #livercancer, & #liverfailure.
If not detected & treated on time, the person may die of these complications. Image
