How awful the disease Hepatitis infection in Bangladesh?

Hepatitis infection is seen as a silent killer in Bangladesh. According to the World Health Organization, about one crore people are infected with Hepatitis B and C virus in Bangladesh. In Bangladesh, more than 20,000 people die each year in hepatitis.

The biggest cause of concern for hepatitis is that nine people infected with the hepatitis B virus in the world do not know that they are carrying this virus in the body.

In addition, the sufferers of this disease do not get treatment in many cases. And in Bangladesh, a large part of the hepatitis disease is being treated with scarring, drinking water, and crab medicine.

Hepatitis infections are known in the public as jaundice diseases in Bangladesh. In fact, hepatitis is a viral liver disease. There are 5 types of hepatitis in medical science. Hepatitis A and E short-term liver disease. It rested at one point after taking rest. However, leprosy is the transmission of hepatitis B and C virus.

Director of the Institute of Epidemiology Disease Control and Research, Mirzadi Sejrina Flora said that all of the five hepatitis viruses are in Bangladesh. This year, there has been an outbreak of Hepatitis E virus in Chittagong and three people have died.

"There are five types of hepatitis patients in our country, and most people suffer from viruses, if there is an outbreak in our country, it is essentially an outbreak of the virus because it spreads more than it is." The virus spreads mainly through water, and in the last two-three years, We can see an outbreak of an E virus every year. "

The doctors said that up to three percent of those infected with Hepatitis A and E virus were killed. Hepatitis B and C virus spreads mainly through blood and human body fluids.

National Lever Foundation of Bangladesh Secretary-General Dr. Mohammad Ali said, "Hepatitis is a silent killer in Bangladesh. The Hepatitis B and C virus is responsible for 80 percent of all liver cancer in the world. On average, every day 4,000 people die from liver disease in the world. "

"It is silently spreading from one body to another, such as from a razor to shaving saloons, taking drugs through syringes, tattoos, nose-groans, blood-feeding, and then transmitting easily through sexual intercourse, hepatitis B and C. Like AIDS. "

Mr. Ali also says it has become necessary for people to be aware of hepatitis infection.

According to the guidelines of the World Health Organization, it is necessary to give birth doses to prevent hepatitis within 24 hours, but children in Bangladesh are taking up to 6 weeks of vaccination.

Since it is the most spreading through blood, safe blood transfusion is necessary. But before the donation in Bangladesh, the hepatitis B and C virus is not always detected.

Professor of the hematology department of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Masuda Begum said B.Sc. virus has a window period after the blood transfusion, from 2 to 6 months. This time the virus is not detected in the general blood test. If someone transmits blood at this time, then the virus becomes infected. It requires DNA Viral Marker or HVC Total Test to calculate. It is a lethal disease that does not have any alternative to safe blood circulation.

"We call district upazila hospitals in our country as primary secondary hospitals, but there is no arrangement for HVC Viral Marker or HVC Total in Hepatitis Examinations in these places, and it can not be ensured that there is no virus in the blood. There are no arrangements for DNA viral markers in the district's hospitals. "

The symptoms of hepatitis B are fever, weakness, fatigue, vomiting or vomiting. Many people in Bangladesh are being treated with Kaviraji with these symptoms. Kaviraji is a scientific basis of the medical belief that hepatitis A and E can be properly rested if the proper rest takes place. The infected people of this virus feel that chanting, burning water, and working on the treatment of Kaviraji. But if the hepatitis B and C virus is infected with blood, liver cirrhosis and ultimately liver cancer may cause death. Experts say that it is important to be aware of the large population of Bangladesh to protect against hepatitis.

Bangladesh's Health Minister Mohammad Nasim said Bangladesh is working to meet the target according to the World Health Organization's target.

"The government is very aware of hepatitis Disease. The government has the action plan for this disease. We have kept this program in place for 5 years of free hepatitis vaccine for children, including children. It will be given. "

Meanwhile, the World Health Organization has set several goals by 2030 to prevent and eliminate hepatitis.

Experts working with hepatitis have said that Bangladesh pledges to meet the 2030 target, yet there is still no national policy for preventing viral hepatitis.
