About Infectious Awareables Microfiber Hepatitis B

The mission of every Infectious Awareables tie is to generate interest, discussion, even excitement about serious public health issues such as this Hepatitis B tie. Believing that humor can be a powerful educational tool, Infectious Awareables neckties take an atypical, slightly irreverent approach to some very serious subjects. Shop and take pride in knowing that a portion of the proceeds will be donated to disease research/education. "Start the Conversation!" Hepatitis-B virus is a dangerous viral pathogen that causes severe liver disease. HBV is transmitted by sexual contact, transfusion or contaminated needles. It looms as a serious global threat, with at least 280 million cases occurring globally, many of whom become lifetime carriers. A vaccine is available, and now, so is this great looking tie! A back-of-tie "Awareness Note" and a source citation are incorporated in the pattern design, which reads: "HEPATITIS B VIRUS (HBV) is a dangerous bacterial pathogen that causes severe liver disease. The virus is transmitted by sexual contact, transfusion or contaminated needles. A vaccine is available and is advised for people who come in contact with blood or fluids of those who may be infected."
