Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is primarily transmitted from mother to child, by sexual contact, intravenous drug abuse, or unsafe health care-related injection practices. Despite increased safety efforts, nosocomial acquired hepatitis B infection remains problematic. OBJECTIVES: A large HBV...
