 　　World Hepatitis Day is observed on May the 19th. It aims to increase awareness1 worldwide of the diseases hepatitis B and hepatitis C. Its hope is to encourage the prevention and diagnosis2 of these two diseases, and increase the number of people who receive treatment. The day is organized by the World Hepatitis Alliance. This is a group that consists of over 200 different patients’ groups around the world. It represents around 500 million people globally who suffer from hepatitis. Its aim is to provide global leadership and support to halt the death toll3 and improve the lives of people living with hepatitis B and C. Its ultimate goal is “to work with governments to eradicate4 these diseases from the planet”.

　　5月19日为世界肝炎日。目的在于提高全球对乙型肝炎和丙型肝炎的认识程度。加强对这两种肝炎的预防和诊断，增加治疗人数。该节日由世界肝炎联盟主办。它由全球200多个肝炎患者群体组成，代表了全球5亿多患者的心声。它的目的旨在发挥领导和支持作用，减少肝炎死亡人数，提高乙肝和丙肝患者的生活质量。它的最终目标是和政府一道让肝炎在地球上灭绝。
　　Hepatitis is a disease that causes injury to the liver and can result in death. The disease causes tissue in the liver to become inflamed5. Most cases of hepatitis are caused by a group of viruses. In other cases, things like alcohol or infections can cause the disease. The disease can make it impossible for the liver to function properly. This means the liver will not be able to remove harmful substances from our body, or make sure our blood is healthy. Symptoms include tiredness, muscle and joint6 aches, fever, vomiting7, diarrhea, and headache. In serious cases, people lose their appetite, lose weight and have severe stomach pain. There is a vaccine8 against hepatitis B but scientists are still working on one for hepatitis C.
　　乙肝为肝脏性疾病，且可致人死亡。乙肝导致肝脏组织发炎。多数乙肝由病毒引起。如饮酒或感染也会导致肝炎。肝脏会因此而无法正常运行。肝脏无法将有害物质排除体外，或保证血液健康。症状包括疲倦、肌肉和关节疼痛、发烧、呕吐、腹泻以及头疼。严重情况会失去食欲，体重减轻以及严重的胃疼。人类发明了乙肝疫苗，目前还在研制丙肝疫苗。
