Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND METHODS: Genotype IV hepatitis E virus (HEV) has been isolated from humans and swine. To study the relationship between the human and swine reservoirs, we estimated their respective viral burden, analyzed the genetic makeup of the virus populations, and assessed the risk of infection associated with swine farming. RESULTS: In 2 swine-farming districts of eastern China, 9.6% of swine and 0.3% of...
