This year's Health Exhibition was themed “TB Ends with Us”, aiming to raise public awareness of tuberculosis, promote early symptom recognition and prevention knowledge, and encourage healthy lifestyle habits to reduce the risk of infection at source. The exhibition featured several themed booths, including health education areas by the TB & Chest Service of the Department of Health Chest Services, the Hong Kong Council on Smoking and Health, and our Chinese Medicine services, as well as specialist talks by healthcare professionals sharing practical advice on TB prevention and lung care.
