What a week at VH2026!

Hepatitis Australia was proud to have such a strong presence at this year’s conference, with our team contributing across the program and connecting with colleagues from across the sector.

Across VH2026, we:
• Hosted three poster tours, with a further three poster listings
• Had our CEO deliver a Welcome Address at the Opening Plenary
• Contributed to the Community Pharmacies Pre-Conference Meeting
• Ran a session on advancing implementation of the national hepatitis strategies
• Presented across numerous conference sessions, including two plenary panels
• Rapporteured at the Closing Ceremony
• And hosted a highly successful HepLink stall, which attracted lots of interest and great conversations throughout the conference

A big thank you to ASHM for organising VH2026, the presenters, colleagues and everyone who stopped by to say hello. We’re proud of the role our team played and grateful for the opportunity to connect, share and learn.

6 days to go 🚦The light's about to turn green. Take the next step for your health.

Almost 65,000 Australians are estimated to be living with hepatitis C, many without knowing it. Early testing and treatment can prevent serious liver disease, even cancer.

The next step starts with a conversation and a test. Don’t hit pause on curing hepatitis C. The latest cure is just tablets for 8-12 weeks with minimum side effects.

HepLink can support your next step through its Hep C Telehealth service. It’s completely confidential: www.heplink.au/book_telehealth
