Since the launch of the Hepatopathy Screening for Tens of Thousands of People of Hubei Province in 2017, which is led by Hubei Liver and Gallbladder Disease Association with the Central South Hospital as the lead, more than 2,000 party members and expert members have paid visits to the grassroots. With the principle of promoting public welfare as the guideline, they provided voluntary medical consultation, free testing and health consultation, as well as delivering medicine, technology and services to the people. Up to now, the activity has been successfully carried out in 21 destinations, benefiting more than 20,000 patients with hepatopathy in Hubei Province.

On the day of the event, there was a long queue in the outpatient lobby of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Hospital Wuxiu City, with people still crowding in constantly. Traditional Chinese Medicine of Hospital Wuxiu City also prepared and distributed free breakfast for patients who had their blood drawn and examined, such as bread, soy milk, buns and so on. According to statistics, there are 617 people registering, more than 490 people consulting the experts, more than 450 people taking blood tests, more than 170 people completing liver fibrosis tests. Tests such as ALT and AST, hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis B virus DNA, antibody of hepatitis C, fetal globulin, three indexes of kidney function, two indexes of coagulation, and liver fibrosis test are all for free.

Aiming to fully implement the strategy of Healthy Hubei and Healthy China Initiative, the activity will continue to give full play to the role of social organizations in delivering public welfare, expand the service scope, and make greater contributions to the prevention and treatment of hepatopathy in Hubei Province and the state.
