Hepatitis B Markers in Ambulance Personnel in Lancashire

P. MORGAN-CAPNER and P. D. B. WALLICE

Department of Virology Preston, UK
Department of Community Medicine Preston, UK

None was currently infected but two (1·1 per cent) had had hepatitis B in the past with full recovery. Thus, the prevalence of past hepatitis B was within the range observed for blood donors in the UK.
