Molecular Confirmation of Hepatitis A Virus from Well Water: Epidemiology and Public Health Implications

1 Jan 1999

Abstract excerpt

An outbreak of hepatitis A in a rural river-island community was found to be associated with consumption of contaminated well water. Specimens from case-patients, the implicated well, and a cesspool suspected to be the source of contamination were all positive for hepatitis A virus (HAV) RNA by immunocapture reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. All isolates were identical over about 400 bases from two...
