BlogPakistan’s Silent Battle: Why 2030 Could Be the Year We Finally Beat Hepatitis

August 22, 2025

Hepatitis has been a silent destroyer in Pakistani communities for decades, claiming lives while many remain unaware of the threat. As a living kidney donor turned kidney health coach who travels from the USA to work directly with rural communities in Sohawa, Punjab, I've witnessed an alarming pattern during my advocacy trips over the past two years: patients arriving for kidney treatment, only to discover they're simultaneously fighting an undiagnosed hepatitis infection that may have caused their kidney disease in the first place. This devastating connection between hepatitis and kidney failure, particularly evident in Punjab's rural areas, drove me deeper into understanding Pakistan's hepatitis crisis. A conversation with Dr. Saeed Akhtar, a leading transplant surgeon and key figure in Pakistan's hepatitis elimination efforts, opened my eyes to a harsh reality: well-meaning dialysis centers can become hubs for hepatitis C transmission without proper protocols. This insight compelled me to earn certifications in Hepatitis B (Hepatitis B Foundation) and Hepatitis C Test and Cure (University of Washington) to bring better-informed advocacy directly to these underserved communities. This blog is the first in a series exploring Pakistan's fight against hepatitis, a cause I'm committed to amplifying through advocacy and education. Now, with Pakistan's renewed national efforts, I believe we're on the cusp of a breakthrough.
