During each pregnancy, the CDC recommends that all pregnant women be tested for HIV, hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and syphilis.

<h3>What is CDC ?</h3>

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is the United States' national public health agency. It is a federal agency of the United States that reports to the Department of Health and Human Services and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.

Every pregnancy, the CDC advises all expectant mothers to get tested for syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV. In order to receive treatment for HCV infection and to stop the newborn from contracting HIV, HBV, or syphilis, screening is required.

Women who receive late or no prenatal care, however, are less likely to be evaluated for and treated for HIV, HBV, and syphilis. Early screening chances are frequently lost.

Access to treatment and care that can stop perinatal transmission is made possible by screening. Prenatal care and conception are crucial windows of time to address issues that may have long-term effects on health.
