Shafaqna English- 27,881 positive hepatitis cases in Afghanistan were recorded between January and June this year. Officials at the Ministry of Public Health said a lack of sufficient resources has limited their ability to provide services across the country. Haidar Khan Haidar, director general of preventive medicine at the Ministry of Public Health, said: “Greater attention should be paid to preventable diseases such as hepatitis B and C. Health should be kept separate from politics.” Sources: Tolo Newswww.shafaqna.com
