A thought to carry into autumn 🍂

At #ESC2026, I was invited to discuss the cardioprotective role of high-dose flu vaccination for the elderly.

A great example of ID&cardio shared responsibility for the same patient.

Flu prevention is also CV prevention 💉❤️

Effective solutions to control viral hepatitis already exist, including vaccination, harm reduction, testing and treatment.

This #WorldHepatitisDay, the challenge is ensuring these life-saving interventions are accessible to everyone who needs them.

But gaps remain:
➡️ Hepatitis B vaccination coverage uneven across the EU/EEA
➡️ access to harm reduction services for people who inject drugs remains inadequate in many countries.

Hepatitis B - Annual Epidemiological Report for 2024
For 2024, 30 EU/EEA countries reported 37 605 cases of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, corresponding to a crude rate of 7.5 cases per 100 000 population.

No one should die from a disease that is preventable, diagnosable and treatable.

Yet around 5M people in Europe live with chronic hepatitis B or C, and almost 60,000 people die each year from liver disease linked to these infections.

World Hepatitis Day 2026: Despite progress towards eliminating hepatitis in Europe, gaps in prevention measures keep 2030 targets out of reach
While Europe has made steady progress in preventing hepatitis B and C the region is set to miss the 2030 target to eliminate viral hepatitis as a public health threat.

Multidisciplinary care begins by seeing the person beyond the diagnosis. For people living with viral hepatitis or HIV, trust and reducing stigma are essential parts of care.

Medicine is strongest when knowledge, compassion, and collaboration come together.
