Survey of Hepatitis B Vaccination Coverage and Surface Antibody–Positive Rates in People Aged 1–59 Years in 2006 and 2024
Hepatitis B vaccination coverage among adults was still insufficient. Hepatitis B vaccine-mediated immunity was low in adults aged 30-49 years. It is recommended to update the guidelines for hepatitis B vaccination of adults in China, cancel the assessment of risk factors and prevaccination serological screening, and emphasize universal vaccination of all unvaccinated adults to increase coverage.
