He has been living with chronic hepatitis B for almost 40 years, and is one of the only hepatitis B cases in town in rural Georgia.t. DeWayne shares his struggle with finding accessible care, as he travels 360 miles every six months just to receive treatment. He stresses the importance of vaccination and screening as preventative measures to protect against hepatitis B in the future.
