Recognizing July 28, 2025, as "World Hepatitis Day".

H. Res. 630 is a House resolution recognizing July 28, 2025, as World Hepatitis Day. It emphasizes the global and U.S. burden of hepatitis B and C, including high mortality and infection rates, and notes particularly vulnerable groups. The resolution highlights existing prevention and treatment tools (notably the hepatitis B vaccine and antiviral treatments for hepatitis C) and references updated public health plans and guidelines, such as universal vaccination for certain adults and broader screening recommendations. It calls for a robust governmental and public health response to improve access to vaccination and treatment, increase awareness, and reduce new infections in the United States, including a directive for the CDC to work with state and local health departments to boost adult vaccination for hepatitis B and treatment for hepatitis C to levels needed to eliminate new infections. Because this is a non-binding resolution, it expresses the sense of the House and does not appropriate funds or create new law. Its impact would be to steer public health priorities, encourage coordination among agencies, and bolster advocacy and awareness around hepatitis B and C.
