The Asian Pacific Health Center of San Diego wants you to know that Asians and Pacific Islanders are at high risk for getting hepatitis B.
Hepatitis B is a very serious disease which attacks the liver and can lead to liver cancer and death.
It is also very contagious. It is easily spread through contact with blood or body fluids. You can even get it by sharing toothbrushes or razors. Many people who are infected don’t even know they have it.
But you can protect yourself from Hepatitis B
by getting vaccinated.
Three simple shots will protect you for life.
Come to the Asian Pacific Health Center to be tested for hepatitis B and to receive your vaccination.
It is free for Asians and Pacific Islanders ages 12 to 25. For everyone else, there is a small fee.
The Asian Pacific Health Center is
located at 4419 Euclid Avenue, near the corner of El Cajon Boulevard, in the
