When Australia missed its target of treating 20% of chronic hepatitis B patients in 2022, there was one exception.
Even in 2023, the national treatment rate was just 12.6%, according to a report by the Australasian Society for HIV, Viral Hepatitis and Sexual Health Medicine (ASHM) and the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity.
