WHO Consolidated Guidance on Hepatitis B and C Prevention, Testing, Treatment, Service Delivery and Monitoring

The World Health Organization (WHO) released consolidated guidance and implementation handbook on hepatitis B and C, to support countries to expand prevention, testing, treatment, service delivery and programme monitoring, through a comprehensive public health approach.

Marking 10 years since the adoption of WHO’s first Global Health Sector Strategy on viral hepatitis, the handbook brings together more than a decade of WHO evidence-based recommendations on viral hepatitis into a single, practical reference for programme managers, policymakers, clinicians, donors and partners. It provides clear operational guidance in one place to translate normative recommendations into action. It also supports the integration of hepatitis services within primary health care and universal health coverage platforms.
