Of these, 50% are at risk of becoming chronic and 900,000 can become liver cancer. Even Hepatitis B-0 is the top 4 cause of death in Indonesia, with an estimated annual death of 51,100 deaths. HB-0 immunization coverage at TPMB "L" in May 2023 is 35% of the target of 100%. The purpose of this study: To determine the picture of maternal knowledge about HB-0 immunization in newborns in TPMB "L". This research method is a descriptive study, sampling using the Accidental sampling method, with a total of 25 respondents of 3rd-trimester pregnant women in TPMB "L" using questionnaires. The results of the study: Pregnant women with quite a lot of knowledge categories are 20 people (80%) and pregnant women with knowledge of approximately 5 people (20%). Conclusion: The level of knowledge about HB-0 immunization in TPMB "L" with sufficient category is 20 respondents (80%).
