#BtheVoice Video Library
The B the Voice story bank is a global effort to elevate the voices of those living with hepatitis B. It’s a compliment to the #justB storytelling campaign that focuses on the U.S. Each story is unique and is told by a person living with hepatitis B. Many of the topics covered by the storytellers include stigma, discrimination, access to healthcare and more.
Denise’s story of living with hepatitis B in Alaska
Denise, at 14 years old, discovered she was a hepatitis B carrier after a routine visit to the Alaska Native Medical Center. The experience was disorienting, especially without her parents present. Over the years, she has stayed vigilant with her health, consistently following up with her doctor every six months for blood work and liver imaging. Denise encourages others with hepatitis B to remain proactive with their medical care and hopes for a cure in the future.
