Abstract

Conclusion:The study reveals a 4.3% prevalence of hepatitis B, with the highest infection rate among individuals aged 20-39 years, and males showing a higher prevalence than females.Although vaccination uptake was high for the first dose, adherence declined for subsequent doses.These findings highlight the need for targeted public health interventions, particularly among younger adults and males, to improve awareness and vaccination completion.Enhanced community engagement and sustained vaccination effort s are crucial f or reducing HBV transmission and achieving better coverage.
