According to a report on July 8th from the Information Network, French media said that a report published on July 7 stated that the hepatitis caused by the virus has become the “killer†of death and disability in the world. It causes more deaths per year than AIDS. , tuberculosis or malaria.
Agence France-Presse July 7, researchers examined the data collected from 183 countries and found that the number of deaths due to viral hepatitis-induced infections, liver diseases, and cancer increased from 890,000 in 1990 to 2013. 1.45 million, an increase of 63%.
The report stated that, in comparison, 1.3 million people died of AIDS in 2013, 1.4 million died of tuberculosis, and 855,000 people died of malaria. The report was published in the British "The Lancet" weekly.
Graham Cook, a medical specialist at the Imperial College in the United Kingdom who led the study, said: "Since 1990, deaths caused by infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and malaria have decreased, and deaths from viral hepatitis have increased."
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, which is often caused by a virus, but it is sometimes caused by drugs, alcohol, other infectious diseases, or autoimmune diseases.
There are five main types of hepatitis: hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, hepatitis D and hepatitis E.
The World Health Organization says that hepatitis A and hepatitis E usually spread through contaminated food or water, while hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and hepatitis D usually occur after contact with the body fluids of infected patients.
The researchers said that 96% of hepatitis deaths in this study were caused by hepatitis B and hepatitis C. Most of the deaths from hepatitis appear in East Asia and South Asia.
Cook said: "We have a way to treat this disease. We have a vaccine to deal with hepatitis A and B. We have new ways to treat hepatitis C." For hepatitis C, there is currently no vaccine.
He said: "However, the price of new drugs exceeds the affordability of all countries, rich and poor."
The study also called for a change in the funding structure so that “low-income and low- and middle-income countries can respond effectivelyâ€.
Agence France-Presse reported on July 6th that according to a research report published on the July 7th issue of the British Medical Journal “The Lancetâ€, viral hepatitis is an increasingly deadly disease, and the number of deaths each year is now AIDS and tuberculosis are equivalent.
Based on the World Health Organization's Study Report on the Burden of the Global Disease, researchers at the Imperial College in the United Kingdom and the University of Washington in the United States assessed that in 2013, a total of 145 million people died of complications of certain viral hepatitis.
There are currently 5 types of viral hepatitis that can be transmitted through blood or other infected body fluids such as sperm (hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus), or through ingestion of contaminated water or food (hepatitis A virus and hepatitis E virus). Hepatitis D virus is a defective virus that only affects patients with chronic hepatitis B.
The most deadly are Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C. Nearly 96% of deaths are related to them. The main manifestations are liver cancer and liver cirrhosis.
They often did not have any symptoms at first and developed quietly until suddenly there was a severe liver problem or cancer.
Most of the deaths occurred in high-income and middle-income countries, and the incidence in East Asia is high, although hepatitis B vaccine is available there and can effectively treat hepatitis C.
As for the vaccination against hepatitis B, the countries concerned have still not done enough. Cook at British Imperial College of Technology said that because "a considerable number of people" have never been vaccinated.
