Phylogenetic analysis of acute hepatitis C virus genotype 4 infections among human immunodeficiency virus-positive men who have sex with men in Germany

12 Jul 2010

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: An ongoing HCV epidemic currently affects a growing proportion of HIV-positive men who have sex with men (MSM) in Europe. Recently in the North-Rhine region of Germany, we have observed an increase in acute HCV infections of genotype 4 (HCV-4). AIMS: To characterize the current spread of HCV-4 among German MSM using a molecular epidemiological approach. METHODS: Patient characteristics and sera were...
