“Anyone can be infected by hepatitis B virus. Everyone can benefit from knowing their status and being protected. For over 30 years, hepatitis B vaccination has been recommended for all U.S. infants. In 2022, CDC recommended catch-up hepatitis B vaccination of all adults through age 59 and older adults with risk factors or who want to be vaccinated. In 2023, CDC recommended one-time hepatitis B screening of all adults. Integrating these two important recommendations into clinical practice poses unique challenges for healthcare providers. Carolyn Wester, MD, MPH, Director of CDC’s Division of Viral Hepatitis, and Kelly Moore, MD, MPH, CEO of Immunize.org are co-authors of the ACIP hepatitis B vaccination policy statement and longstanding champions of hepatitis B elimination. In this one-hour webinar conversation, they will discuss the recommendations and the practical clinical questions you have about how to make them work for everyone. Widespread implementation of adult screening and catch-up vaccination brings the elimination of hepatitis B in the United States, along with hepatitis B-related liver disease and cancer, within reach.
