KOMPAS.com – July 28, 2023 falls on a Friday. This date is celebrated as World Hepatitis Day.
Apart from that, there are also other anniversaries and celebrations on this day. Here are some warnings that fall on July 28, 2023.
World Hepatitis Day
Every July 28 is celebrated as World Hepatitis Day.
The purpose of this day is to encourage people to increase their awareness about the dangers of hepatitis and how to prevent it.
Hepatitis is a disease that gives way to the liver. This disease causes inflammation in the liver.
The causes of hepatitis can vary. One of them could be due to infection from other sufferers.
The World Hepatitis Alliance established this day in 2008. It was originally held on 19 May but was changed to 28 July 2010.
July 28 was chosen because it coincides with the birthday of Baruch Samuel Blumberg, an American doctor who discovered the hepatitis B virus and its vaccine.
World Nature Conservation Day
Every July 28 is also celebrated as World Nature Conservation Day.
Many people are still thinking about how to preserve the environment. One of them is by holding World Nature Conservation Day.
However, nature conservation must be considered. Many natural resources are over-exploited by humans, causing environmental damage.
The Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as an organization that is concerned with nature continues to encourage changes so that living ecosystems continue to run well.
Much of IUCN’s work is directed at the protection of species and their habitats. In the 2000s, IUCN worked to conserve nature while addressing global challenges such as climate change, food and water security, and poverty alleviation.
