Table 2.

Global service coverage targets that would eliminate HBVa and HCVb as public health threats, 2015-2030.

Target areas Baseline 2015 2020 target 2030 target
Service coverage



Prevention




Three-dose HBV for infants (coverage %) 84 90 90


Prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HBV: hepatitis B birth-dose vaccination or other approaches (coverage %) 39 50 90


Blood and injection safety





Blood safety: donations screened with quality assurance (coverage %) 97 95 100



Injection safety: use of engineered devicesc (coverage %) 5 50 90


Harm reduction (sterile syringe/needle set distributed per person per year for people who inject drugs [PWID]) 20 200 300

Treatment




Diagnosis of HBV and HCV (coverage %) 9-20 30 90


Treatment of HBV and HCV 7%-8% 5 million (HBV) and 3 million (HCV) 80% eligible treated
Impact leading to elimination



Incidence of chronic HBV and HCV infections 6-10 million 30% reduction 90% reduction

Mortality from chronic HBV and HCV infections 1.34 million 10% reduction 65% reduction

aHBV: hepatitis B virus.

bHCV: hepatitis C virus.

cAlthough the service coverage target is about output (adoption of reuse prevention injection devices), the C.5 indicator focuses on outcome (provision of safe injections).
