This year’s took place at Kumasi and saw in attendance some big names in the movie industry who all screened and vaccinated against the disease. They include: Wayoosi, Salinko, Big Akwes and a host of other respected celebrities.
Okyeame Kwame who took turn to address the audience showed appreciation to colleague celebrities for turning in their numbers to screen and vaccinate against the disease.
He urged them to continue to join in the fight against hepatitis since it is a difficult one to engage in alone.
The 7 hour program also provided counseling for people tested positive to hepatitis.
Dr. Paul Sekyere Nyantakyi of MDS Lancet-Laboratories urged them not to panic over their statuses since there are control measures for the disease when contracted. However, prevention is always a better option they urged.
