EU-HEP-SCREEN: Screening for Hepatitis B and C among migrants in the European Union

Brief me

Chronic viral hepatitis B and C is a major health problem in many European countries. Migrants from endemic areas in particular, are the most affected and underserved population groups. The general objective of this project is to assess, describe and communicate to public health professionals the tools and conditions necessary for implementing successful screening programmes for hepatitis B and C among migrants in the European Union.
