Hepatitis A – Essential Information to Help You Protect Yourself

The Prague Public Health Authority is informing the public about key measures to protect against hepatitis A, which spreads mainly through contaminated food or water and poor hand hygiene. As a preventive measure, it recommends maintaining good personal hygiene, thorough hand washing, and considering vaccination – especially before traveling to areas with a higher incidence of the disease.

Clear information leaflets are available in English, Ukrainian, German, and Italian. These materials explain the basic modes of transmission, prevention options, and recommendations for minimizing the risk of infection.
