摘要: The epidemiological status of HCV in Europe, and particular Mediterranean countries, is continuously evolving. genotype distribution related to improvement healthcare conditions, expansion intravenous drug use immigration. We review characterize the epidemiology genotypes within Calabria, an area Southern Italy. focus on pattern distinct changes over last 16 years; particularly subtype 1b 4. collected data by evaluating a hospital-based cohort chronic hepatitis C patients; addition, we report update including new patients enrolled during eight months.
