Resources for infant care providers
Infant care providers should ensure that infants born to HBsAg positive women complete the hepatitis B vaccine series and receive post vaccine serologic testing. Results should be reported to the Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program. For more information, refer to Preventing Perinatal Hepatitis B - Guidelines for Pediatric Care Providers.
Infant care providers should report any cases of an HBsAg exposed infant/child. To notify the Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program about an HBsAg-exposed infant/child, please complete and fax this form to (408) 792-1304:
