From March 09 to March 15, 2026, the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation announces a Week to combat the infection and spread of chronic viral hepatitis C.

This is an important initiative aimed at raising awareness about the disease, its prevention and diagnosis of hepatitis. The medical staff of the Krasivo sanatorium join a significant information campaign and conduct lectures, seminars and talks on the topic of prevention for vacationers and staff. Hepatitis C is an inflammation of the liver caused by a virus that can lead to serious health consequences. 

To minimize the risk of infection and protect others, it is recommended:

1. Avoid tattoos and piercings in non-certified areas; contact only professionals using sterile instruments.

2. Use only sterile or disposable hygiene items: razors, manicure supplies, toothbrushes and towels.

3. Use barrier protection to prevent infections.

4. Get tested for hepatitis C virus before planning pregnancy.

When do you need to be especially wary?

Although the disease is often latent, it can sometimes manifest itself: fatigue, weakness, heaviness in the right hypochondrium, nausea, decreased appetite. If you notice these symptoms, do not delay your visit to the doctor. Remember: the earlier the virus is detected, the more successful the therapy will be. Be attentive to your health and the health of others!
