Heesook's Story: Living with Hep B (featuring Dr Alice Lee)

Hepatitis B is a virus which is one of the leading causes of cancer worldwide. In Australia, vaccines for Hepatitis B are provided to children when they are born to give them lifelong immunity. However, those born overseas who didn’t receive the vaccine are more at risk. In this video, we meet Heesook who has been living with hepatitis B. Heesook talks about her experience of living with hepatitis B, her diagnosis and treatment. We also talk with Dr Alice Lee, Heesook's specialist, about the need for people from migrant backgrounds to get tested early and often to ensure they can get treatment, if needed, before they get liver damage. Hepatitis B can be managed once diagnosed and treatment is covered by Medicare for all Australian citizens. Learn more about hepatitis B here: https://www.hep.org.au/hep-b/what-is-...
