Maryam’s Story of Living with Hepatitis B in Nigeria

After Maryam's mother passed away from hepatitis B, she was advised to get screened. She found out she was positive for hepatitis B. Jenesso Development Initiative helped her get screened and helped her find medication which helped her feel better. Her children were screened shortly after. It was a difficult time for her since she was scared, she would suffer the same fate as her mother. She encourages others to get screened and to know their health status.
