متن کاملHepatitis B and hepatitis C virus in Thai blood donors.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are major causes of transfusion-transmitted infection (TTI). In Thailand, the prevalence of HBV infection in new blood donors has decreased gradually from 7.1% in 1988 to 2.6% in 2009. This drastic decline in HBV prevalence is mostly the result of an effective expanded program on immunization (EPI) against HBV; the current coverage rate with H...
