State Viral Hepatitis Coordinators
The CDC has created a national network of State Viral Hepatitis Coordinators and Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Coordinators who manage programs to prevent, monitor, and control viral hepatitis. They reach out locally to hospitals, physicians, STD clinics, and drug treatment centers. Many of the Coordinators are trained as nurses, public health professionals, or a combination of the two and usually work out of state or city health departments.
