Impact of universal vaccination on intrafamilial transmission of hepatitis B virus.

Journal of medical virology - 1 May 2011

Mu Shu-Chi, Wang Gen-Ming, Jow Guey-Mei, Chen Bing-Fang

Abstract excerpt

To control hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, a nationwide vaccination program was launched in 1984 and resulted in a significant reduction in the rate of persistent infection of children. However, the relative contribution of vaccination to the intrafamilial clustering of HBV infection remains unclear. The rate of intrafamilial HBV transmission in vaccinated children was investigated. Eighty-four sera from...
