Hepatitis is a major public health concern in the Philippines.
2019 data from the World Health Organization show Chronic Hepatitis B infects around one in 10 people in the country.
And Chronic Hepatitis C affects six in one-thousand people.
Hepatitis is often regarded as a "silent killer" which quietly damages the liver leading to Liver Cancer and Cirrhosis.
But with early screening and diagnosis experts believe the viral disease can be managed and treated.
Joining us now is Thilo Brenner.
He's the Sub-Region One Head of Biotech Research Company Roche Diagnostics in the Asia Pacific.
