Hepatitis B vaccine is given in the United States at birth because the incidence of transmission from asymptomatic mothers was high enough that children were still getting hepatitis B, which is incurable and can lead to liver cancer. Other countries don't have as much hepB. https://www.cdc.gov/hepatitis-b/media/HepBPerinatal-ProtectHepBYourBaby.pdf
