Phylogeography of hepatitis B: The role of Portugal in the early dissemination of HBV worldwide

2022-01-05

Abstract excerpt

In 2015, 257 million people lived with chronic hepatitis B infection. In Portugal 1.4% of the population is chronically infected with hepatitis B virus. Limited information is available regarding the genetic diversity, origin of HBV in Portugal and its role in the dissemination of HBV worldwide. In this study, we aimed to investigate the epidemic history and transmission dynamics of HBV genotypes that are endemic...
