¡Enhorabuena al Public Health Liver Group de #ISGlobal!
El proyecto #VHCOMSAVAC ha recibido el Premio a la Prevención de Enfermedades Infecciosas por su labor en la detección, prevención y atención frente a la #hepatitis viral.
#SaludGlobal #NoHep
The #ISGlobal-led #VHCOMSAVAC project proves it: community-based #hepatitis screening for migrants is not only feasible, but cost-effective. 2,000 people were screened in Italy, Greece and Spain.
#NoHep #GlobalHealth
#VHCOMSAVAC stood up—for equity, for migrants, and for action rooted in evidence.
As the project ends, the message is clear: we need political will to eliminate #Hepatitis by 2030.
#NoHep #GlobalHealth
#VHCOMSAVAC set out to develop scalable, community-based care models tailored to the specific needs of underserved migrant populations.
The research team presented their findings at a final meeting in Barcelona.
#UniversalHealthCoverage is more than a goal—it's a commitment to equity and justice.
Through #VHCOMSAVAC, we’re proving that community-based care can transform health systems and save lives.
