Kenneth’s story of living with hepatitis B in Uganda
Turning Tragedy into Awareness: The Story of Kenneth and the National Organization for People with Hepatitis B
Kenneth's personal experience with hepatitis B, including losing a friend to the disease and his own diagnosis, led him to create the National Organization for People with Hepatitis B. Despite his initial fear, he decided to share his diagnosis with the public, only to be met with stigma and negativity. However, he didn't let this experience defeat him. Instead, he founded the National Organization for People with Hepatitis B, which aims to empower those with the virus by increasing awareness and eliminating stigma. The organization is focused on eliminating stigma, increasing awareness, and advocating for services for people with hepatitis B.
