HERE WE GO! Now CDC says all adults under 60 should get a hepatitis B vaccine... Shingles, Covid, Flu, Zika, HPV... all adults to be screened for

A vax a day keeps a long and healthy life at bay.



All U.S. adults under 60 should get vaccinated against hepatitis B, according to news reports on new recommendations.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, or ACIP, unanimously voted on Nov. 3 to approve the new recommendations, multiple media outlets reported. The recommendation comes as progress toward eliminating the disease in the country has been underwhelming.

“We’re losing ground,” Dr. Mark Weng with the CDC said, according to The Associated Press. “We cannot eliminate hepatitis B in the U.S. without a new approach.”

The recommendation doesn’t become public policy until signed off on by CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, The AP reported, and it’s unclear when she could do so. Here’s what to know about the recommendations.

The CDC is currently drafting recommendations for all adults to be screened for HBV at least once in their lifetime, an ACIP member said. The recommendation will not be discussed or voted on until next year.
