    Hi Karen,

    Thanks for that. Yes CC in Thailand, especially in the poorer rural areas is such a huge problem isn’t it. Such a shame to say the least. That is great to hear that 2 of the nurses from the NAB will be going out to meet with the Thai nurses and docs out there and looking forward to hearing what they bring back. It is good to see that more is being done over there and to help with this etc and do you know if they will be connecting with the CCA Foundation of Thailand whilst there? It’s great that we can all make these connections worldwide isn’t it!

    Hugs,

    Gavin

    Thanks for posting this Gavin!

    I have done some extensive research about liver fluke infection and resultant CCA in endemic areas; it is such a major public health issue there! Two members of our nursing advisory board will be going to Thailand again next year to meet with nurses and physicians who care for CCA patients. I’m sure they will be bringing back some important information to share!
