摘要
Serum samples of 151 intravenous drug users were tested for markers of hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV and HTLV-I infection to estimate the prevalence of blood born virus infection in this high risk group. Anti-HCV antibodies were found in 75% of sera. Seroprevalence for HIV was found 13%, for hepatitis B markers 68% and none for HTLV-I. Multiple infections have been very frequent.
