Molecular characterization of hepatitis B virus genotypes A and D among inmates and blood donors in Northeastern Kenya.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2026

Odallo Vincent Bahati, Aluora Okoti P, Bulimo Wallace, Gachara George

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) persists as a major global public health burden, with hyperendemic prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa. Populations with elevated exposure to percutaneous transmission risks, including incarcerated individuals and healthcare workers demonstrate heightened HBV susceptibility. Despite this, genomic data from Northeastern Kenya and Kenyan prison populations remain scarce....
