No — it was previously covered by Scopus but its coverage is now inactive/discontinued (2008 (also 2005–2006)).
What is the impact factor of Prevention and Control?
Prevention and Control has no Journal Impact Factor — JIF is published only for journals in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI and ESCI) — and Scopus has not published a current CiteScore for it either. Treat any "impact factor" quoted for this journal elsewhere as unofficial.
Who publishes Prevention and Control and what is its ISSN?
Prevention and Control is published by Elsevier B.V. Its ISSN is 1573-2088.
Is Prevention and Control in Web of Science?
No — it is not currently in the Web of Science core collections (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI).
Is Prevention and Control open access?
Yes — it is an open-access journal per Scopus.
Scopus coverage history
Scopus indexed Prevention and Control for 3 years, between 2005 and 2008, with 1 year in that span missing. Coverage ended in 2008, 18 years ago, and Scopus now lists the title as inactive.
Is it still publishing? OpenAlex lists 1 works and 0 citations for the title. Its papers appear as late as 2011, 3 years after Scopus coverage ended in 2008. That pattern fits a journal Scopus stopped indexing while it kept publishing, but it can also come from a changed ISSN or merged records. Confirm the journal's current status before submitting.
