Regional action plan for the implementation of the global health sector strategy on viral hepatitis 2017–2021

Abstract

The Regional action plan for viral hepatitis 2017–2021 aims to encourage Member States to develop country-specific national hepatitis response plans based on the needs and priorities of affected people and communities, as well as on the capacity of the national health sector to address these needs. It prioritizes known effective interventions, promotes equitable access to hepatitis services and sets programmatic milestones for 2018 and 2021 on the pathway towards achieving the global target of elimination of viral hepatitis as a major public health threat by 2030
