Abstract
Hepatitis B is an infection of viral etiology, which is spread all over the world and can be handled by vaccination. The epidemiological situation of this infection has improved tremendously for the last 25 years with the help of different vaccination plans. Extensive practical experience of vaccination proved that the duration and intensity of post-vaccination immunity analysis has to be considered as an essential step of the preventive and anti-epidemic actions to eliminate the hepatitis B. The article examines the evaluation of post-vaccination immunity against hepatitis B among young people living in St. Petersburg. The subjects were measured on the levels of specific antibodies to the hepatitis B virus surface antigen and the duration of post-vaccination immunity. As a result, it has been found that there is no correlation between anti-HBs levels and the duration of post-vaccination immunity.
