🩺 This World Hepatitis Day, EQPAL Medical and REME-D are teaming up for a cause we care deeply about: closing the diagnostic gap.

REME-D’s affordable, field-ready diagnostic kits + EQPAL Medical’s distribution network across Kenya and East Africa = faster, more accessible hepatitis testing for the communities that need it most.

Because everyone deserves an accurate diagnosis, no matter where they live.
