CORRESPONDENCErequires a comprehensive approach, in which successful implementation of an immunization program to prevent infection of susceptible adults will be critical.In November 2021, recognizing the shortcomings of existing risk-based recommendations, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) expanded and simplified recommendations for hepatitis B vaccination to include all adults ages 19-59 years and ≥ 60 years with risk factors for hepatitis B infection. Adults ≥ 60 years of age without known risk factors for hepatitis B infection may receive hepatitis B vaccines. [2] Cohen et al. suggest that universal screening with the three-test panel (HBsAg, HBsAb, and HBcAb) will identify susceptible persons benefiting from vaccination. In this context, ACIP recommends that serologic testing, if performed, should not be a barrier to vaccination of susceptible persons. [3] The first dose of vaccine should typically be administered immediately after collection of the blood sample. Therefore, screening and immunization would optimally be performed at the same visit, as opposed to waiting for the results of screening to immunize a susceptible individual.Prevention through universal vaccination is an essential component of a multipronged approach to disease elimination. Given the disparities in access to health care, health equity can be improved by minimizing the number of visits needed to achieve series completion. If universal screening is implemented, screening and initiating immunization at the same visit will be paramount in our collaborative efforts to eliminate hepatitis B in the USA by 2030.
