&lt;h1&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hepatitis A Vaccine in the Philippines: MeVac-A, Symptoms, Risks &amp;amp; Where to Get Vaccinated at PULSE Clinic&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What Is Hepatitis A?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Hepatitis A is a contagious viral infection that affects the liver. It is caused by the &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.pulse-clinic.com/hepatitis-a-basics&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;hepatitis A virus (HAV)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and spreads primarily through contaminated food, water, or close personal contact with an infected person.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;While most people recover completely within a few weeks to months, &lt;strong&gt;hepatitis A can cause severe illness&lt;/strong&gt;, especially in older adults or those with chronic liver conditions. In rare cases, it may lead to &lt;strong&gt;liver failure and death&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Common Is Hepatitis A?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Thanks to the introduction of the hepatitis A vaccine in 1996, global infection rates have significantly declined. However, &lt;strong&gt;recent outbreaks continue to occur&lt;/strong&gt;, often among:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;People who use recreational drugs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Individuals experiencing homelessness&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Men who have sex with men (MSM)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Travelers to high-risk countries&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;These groups remain especially vulnerable, which is why &lt;strong&gt;vaccination remains critical&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How Is Hepatitis A Transmitted?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Hepatitis A is highly contagious and spreads through:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Person-to-person contact&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Close contact&amp;mdash;such as caring for an infected person, engaging in sexual activity, or sharing drug equipment&amp;mdash;can easily spread the virus, even before symptoms appear.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Contaminated food or water&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;HAV can contaminate food at any point in its journey, from harvesting to preparation. Travelers to countries with poor sanitation are at higher risk, even when staying in luxury accommodations.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why You Should Get the Hepatitis A Vaccine&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;most effective way to prevent hepatitis A&lt;/strong&gt; is by getting vaccinated. The &lt;strong&gt;MeVac-A vaccine&lt;/strong&gt; is a safe and highly effective live attenuated vaccine that provides long-term protection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Benefits of MeVac-A:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Single-dose vaccine&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Up to 15 years of protection&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;WHO-recommended&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Minimal side effects and strong immune response&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;For full protection, vaccination is especially important if you:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Have never had hepatitis A&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Are planning to travel abroad&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Work in healthcare, food services, or education&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Live with or care for someone at high risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Have a chronic liver condition or are immunocompromised&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;International Travel &amp;amp; Hepatitis A&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;Travelers to countries where hepatitis A is common&amp;mdash;including parts of Asia, Africa, and South America&amp;mdash;should be vaccinated &lt;strong&gt;at least 2 weeks before travel&lt;/strong&gt;. Even in urban hotels and resorts, the risk remains due to potential exposure through water, ice, or contaminated food.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003366;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Handwashing and caution are important, but not enough.&lt;/strong&gt; Only vaccination can provide reliable protection.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
