UNSPSC 51201607: Hepatitis B virus vaccine

This classification denotes a vaccine for inflammation of the liver in humans caused by a member of the orthohepadnavirus genus, hepatitis b virus, which transmits (generally) by parenteral exposure, such as transfusion of contaminated blood or blood products, but can also be transmitted via sexual or intimate personal contact.

UNSPSC 51201607 Hepatitis B virus vaccine is a Commodity code tracking vaccine procurement by state and local health authorities. State and local governments buy immunization supplies under this code, though recent activity shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and posted opportunities — the sole documented recent opportunity is a Mississippi State Department of Health sole source notice for Yellow Fever Vaccine from Sanofi Pasteur, Inc., not Hepatitis B vaccine. State health departments are the primary issuing bodies under the code, procuring vaccines as part of immunization programs and public health disease-prevention initiatives.

The source contains only one recent opportunity. The Mississippi State Department of Health posted a sole source procurement notice (1301-27-R-RFIN-00001, due August 3, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. CST) for Yellow Fever Vaccine, inviting objections to sole source classification from alternative vendors; the notice does not specify quantity, contract term, or estimated value. The posting does not establish geographic concentration — a single state health department vacancy is insufficient to characterize regional activity. The code shows limited recent public activity, and the single documented opportunity addresses a vaccine product outside the code's stated commodity name, signaling either inactive procurement under the Hepatitis B classification or systematic miscoding of vaccine solicitations.
