Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: More than half of intravenous drug users (IDUs) in China suffer from the Hepatitis C virus (HCV). The virus is also more prevalent in non-injection drug users (NIDUs) than in the general population. However, not much is known about HCV subtype distribution in these populations. METHODS: Our research team conducted a cross-sectional study in four provinces in China. We sampled 825 IDUs and 244 NIDUs...
