Abstract:
A model of immunization of viral hepatitis B with low cost and high efficacy was established in HoChiMinh city with a procedure of two episodes of vaccination. The cost effectiveness was analysed. The non-screening method was recommended for children of 10-14 years old with a procedure of two episodes of vaccination. If possible, HBsAg test must be done for prevention and treatment rather than for economic aims
