Supporting hepatitis B immunization programmes
Throughout the Region, WHO/Europe has supported programmes that provide routine immunizations against hepatitis B to infants and children. As a result, the number of reported cases of acute hepatitis B has fallen dramatically over the last ten years. One example of these routine immunizations can be found in a project in Ukraine that extended hepatitis B vaccinations to hard-to-reach populations, reaching out to those most at risk.
