[Viewpoint] Hepatitis A prevention in the USA depends on rou🧸 Children's Products

Hepatitis A vaccines recommended for all US children to prevent disease

The US government removed hepatitis A vaccine from routine childhood immunizations in January 2026, moving it only to high-risk groups. Without universal vaccination, hepatitis A outbreaks could spread more easily among children and vulnerable populations. Experts warn that this change risks reversing decades of progress in preventing this serious liver infection.
