We read with interest the article by Cui et al.1 regarding antiviral treatment to interrupt mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in China. Their study found that identifying high-risk pregnant women and providing them with antiviral treatment is advisable and cost-effective to interrupt mother-to-child transmission of HBV. Their results add value to the efforts to develop national and regional treatment programmes that will help to achieve the WHO global elimination goal of 0.1% hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) prevalence among children by 2030.
