Abstract:
To analyse the prevalence of liver viral infections we tested sera of drug abusers HIV+ (23 persons), sera of drug abusers HIV--(30 persons) and sera of homosexuals HIV+ (18 persons). We looked for antigens delta and antibodies anti-HBcoreAg, anti-HCV, anti-HDV. Results showed the prevalence of HBV infections among drug abusers (in Warsaw) and lower prevalence of HBV infections among homosexuals. We did not find any HCV and HDV infection among tested homosexuals.
