In addition, university students staying at dormitories are at risk for anemia due to nutritional disorder. In this study, our aim is to conduct serological screening of hepatitis A, B and C and to complete the missing vaccinations and to conduct complete blood counts, and to perform the necessary treatments in medical faculty students.
