| Core Tip |
This study highlights the significant rise in hepatitis A virus (HAV) hospitalizations in the United States from 2011 to 2020, particularly among individuals with substance use disorders. Our findings indicate that younger males and Whites are disproportionately affected, with Southern states bearing the majority of the hospitalization burden. Notably, patients with substance use had higher rates of severe complications, including infective endocarditis and sepsis. The study underscores the urgent need for targeted public health interventions and enhanced vaccination efforts to mitigate the healthcare and economic impacts of HAV, especially among high-risk populations. |
