Preventing Viral Hepatitis Among Persons Who Use Drugs

Hosted By
HCET
Event Date
November 12, 2020

Event Registration

Despite recommendations for vaccination against viral hepatitis A and viral hepatitis B for all adults at increased risk of infection, several U.S. states report increases in both infections among persons who inject drugs. Vaccination coverage for hepatitis A and hepatitis B was investigated among a sample of persons who reported injecting drugs and had evidence of hepatitis C virus antibodies. This webinar will discuss the results of this research and the recommendations for vaccination among persons who inject drugs.

Here is what you can expect to achieve at this event:
• Understand the impact of the opioid crisis, specifically increased injection drug use, on the occurrence of viral hepatitis
• Identify vaccinations available to prevent viral hepatitis infections
• Understand viral hepatitis vaccination coverage among people who inject drugs in Wisconsin
• Identify actions to take in Wisconsin to prevent viral hepatitis among people who inject drugs
