- W1541128601 abstract "Viral hepatitis is the second most common reportable infectious disease in the United States, with hepatitis B accounting for about 45 percent of cases. Although approximately 25,000 cases of hepatitis B are reported to the Centers for Disease Control each year, it is estimated that there are actually about 300,000 annual infections (up from 200,000 in the early 1980s). This increase has occurred despite the availability of a safe and effective hepatitis B vaccine since 1982. Hepatitis B occurs primarily in young adults because of lifestyle or occupationally related exposure. Reported cases in homosexual men have decreased, probably because of changes in behavior related to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome epidemic. Cases due to heterosexual transmission and intravenous drug use are increasing. The proportion of cases in health care workers has decreased, possibly because 30 to 40 percent of high-risk health care workers have been vaccinated. Because of the increase in hepatitis B infection, the strategy of controlling this disease by vaccinating high-risk groups must be reconsidered. Alternative strategies include selective or universal immunization of infants or adolescents. Although integrating hepatitis B vaccine into infant immunization programs takes advantage of the existing system, it would not lead to measurable disease reduction for two decades. Immunizing adolescents would more rapidly reduce the incidence of hepatitis B, but currently no structured health care setting reaches them." @default.
