The hepatitis B vaccine should be given in three doses between birth and 6-18 months of age. All medically stable infants should be vaccinated against hepatitis B.

If you were never vaccinated for hepatitis B, talk to your health care provider about getting vaccinated now with a two-dose or three-dose vaccine. The vaccine is recommended for those up to age 59 at average risk and for those ages 60 and older who are at high risk of hepatitis B infection. (Adults ages 60 and up who are at average risk may also get vaccinated.)

All adults (18+) should get screened for hepatitis B at least once in their lifetime. Pregnant people should get screened during each pregnancy. People who have ongoing risk factors should have periodic testing. If you test positive, treatments are available.

All adults (18+) should be tested for hepatitis C at least once in their lifetime. Those who are pregnant or people of any age with risk factors, including people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), should be screened for hepatitis C. People who have ongoing risk factors should have periodic testing.

If you test positive, treatments are available. There is currently no vaccine for hepatitis C.

If you do, quit. Quitting will have an immediate positive impact on your cancer risk.

لتقليل خطر الإصابة بالسرطان، من الأفضل تجنب الكحول تمامًا. إذا اخترت أن تشرب، فقلل من شربك بحيث لا يزيد عن مشروب واحد يوميًا إذا تم تعيينك أنثى عند الولادة، ولا يزيد عن مشروبين يوميًا إذا تم تعيينك ذكرًا عند الولادة.

Limit your number of partners and use protection/a barrier (such as a condom) every time. Because hepatitis B and C can be spread through vaginal, anal or oral sex, using a new condom the right way every time you have sex can help protect you, but it is not 100% protection.
