Investigation of an hepatitis B outbreak in a metropolitan setting: insights from whole genome sequencing

2026-05-26

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a blood-borne virus that is nationally notifiable in Australia. Despite inclusion of the HBV vaccine in the childhood National Immunisation Program, local and overseas-acquired cases occur. An increase in newly acquired HBV cases in metropolitan Perth between 1 August 2023 and 31 July 2024 triggered an outbreak investigation. Epidemiological analyses of demogr...
