  • The Hepatitis B Vaccine Is the Most Widely Used Vaccine in the World, with Over 1 Billion Doses Given
    Hepatitis B Vaccine Protect Yourself and Those You Love What is Hepatitis B? Hepatitis B is the most common serious liver infection in the world. It is caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV), which attacks liver cells and can lead to liver failure, cirrhosis (scarring), or liver cancer later in life. The virus is transmitted through direct contact with infected blood and bodily fluids, and from an infected woman to her newborn at birth. Is there a safe vaccine for hepatitis B? YES! The good news is that there is a safe and effective vaccine for hepatitis B. The vaccine is a series, typically given as three shots over a six-month period that will provide a lifetime of protection. You cannot get hepatitis B from the vaccine – there is no human blood or live virus in the vaccine. The hepatitis B vaccine is the most widely used vaccine in the world, with over 1 billion doses given. The hepatitis B vaccine is the first "anti-cancer" vaccine because it can help prevent liver cancer! Who should be vaccinated against hepatitis B? The World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend the hepatitis B vaccine for all newborns and children up to 18 years of age, and all high-risk adults. All infants should receive the first dose of the vaccine in the delivery room or in the first 24 hours of life, preferably within 12 hours. (CDC recommends the first dose within 12 hours vs. the WHO recommendation of 24 hours.) The HBV vaccine is recommended to anyone who is at high risk of infection.

  • UNEP Mercury Treaty Protects Access to Thiomersal-Containing Vaccines
    UNEP mercury treaty protects access to thiomersal-containing vaccines United Nations Environment Program has developed a treaty on mercury in an effort to protect human health and the environment by limiting mercury releases. In the course of the negotiations, a proposal was made to restrict vaccines that contain the preservative thiomersal under a section of the treaty that prohibits trade of mercury-added products. The implications of restricting thiomersal, an ethyl mercury-containing preservative, would be significant. According to SAGE, “Thiomersal-containing vaccines [are] safe, essential, and irreplaceable components of immunization programs, especially in developing countries, and…removal of these products would disproportionately jeopardize the health and lives of the most disadvantaged children worldwide.” The treaty annex that describes prohibited products specifically excludes “vaccines containing thiomersal as preservatives” under a short list of products the authors intended to emphasize were to be protected. Protecting access to vaccines came as the result of a strong partnership between WHO, UNICEF, GAVI, and civil society advocates and experts around the world to educate country delegates, who predominantly came from ministries of environment. This was also a wonderful partnership with animal health experts, who similarly rely on thiomersal for veterinary vaccines. By facilitating communication between ministries of health and ministries of environment, strong statements are made by delegates about the essential role of thiomersal-containing vaccines in protecting human health. PATH will be collecting and disseminating additional information about how the community came together around this issue and lessons learned in the coming months. .

  • Hepatitis B Vaccine – Frequently Asked Questions (Information from the CDC)
    AAMC Standardized Immunization Form 2020 Hepatitis B Vaccine – Frequently Asked Questions (Information from the CDC) 1. What are the hepatitis B vaccines licensed for use in the United States? Three single-antigen vaccines and two combination vaccines are currently licensed in the United States. Single-antigen hepatitis B vaccines: • ENGERIX-B® • RECOMBIVAX HB® • HEPLISAV-B™ Combination vaccines: • PEDIARIX®: Combined hepatitis B, diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis (DTaP), and inactivated poliovirus (IPV) vaccine. Cannot be administered before age 6 weeks or after age 7 years. • TWINRIX®: Combined Hepatitis A and hepatitis B vaccine. Recommended for people aged ≥18 years who are at increased risk for both HAV and HBV infections. 2. What are the recommended schedules for hepatitis B vaccination? The vaccination schedule most often used for children and adults is three doses given at 0, 1, and 6 months. Alternate schedules have been approved for certain vaccines and/or populations. A new formulation, Heplisav-B (HepB-CpG), is approved to be given as two doses one month apart. 3. If there is an interruption between doses of hepatitis B vaccine, does the vaccine series need to be restarted? No. The series does not need to be restarted but the following should be considered: • If the vaccine series was interrupted after the first dose, the second dose should be administered as soon as possible. • The second and third doses should be separated by an interval of at least 8 weeks. • If only the third dose is delayed, it should be administered as soon as possible. 4. Is it harmful to administer an extra dose of hepatitis B vaccine or to repeat the entire vaccine series if documentation of the vaccination history is unavailable or the serology test is negative? No, administering extra doses of single-antigen hepatitis B vaccine is not harmful.
