The Czech Republic is experiencing a significant rise in hepatitis A infections, with 450 cases and six deaths reported in the first four months of 2025. Health officials warn that the actual number of infections is likely higher due to tracking difficulties. The virus spreads through contaminated food, water, and poor hygiene. The capital, Prague, and surrounding regions are most affected, particularly among vulnerable populations. Vaccination efforts are underway, especially for the homeless and those in contact with drug users, but challenges remain in controlling the outbreak. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
