Protocol 8. Prevention of hepatitis A, B, C and other hepatotoxic factors in people living with HIV/AIDS

The strategies for limiting the spread of hepatitis include:

• vaccination against hepatitis B and A;
• prevention of mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus
  (HCV);
• reducing risk of infection through safer sexual behaviour and reducing harm related to injecting
  drug use;
• counselling to reduce liver-related harm;
• prevention through transfusion of blood and blood products; and
• prevention in health care settings.
