PB’s story of living with hepatitis B in Nigeria

PB, a medical lab scientist, discovered she had hepatitis B in July 2019 during a testing event she helped organize to encourage others to know their status. Shocked by her positive result, PB retested to confirm the diagnosis. Since then, she has been actively promoting hepatitis B awareness, encouraging others to get tested, and even supporting those who lack the resources to seek treatment. Her advocacy is fueled by the loss of a fellow church member to the disease, which has deepened her commitment to helping others.
