Hepatitis B incidence among South Asian children in England and Wales: implications for immunisation policy.

S Hahné1, M Ramsay, K Soldan, K Balogun, P Mortimer.   

Abstract

The incidence of acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is higher among South Asian than among non-South Asian UK residents, and infections in South Asians occur more often during childhood. The UK's immunisation policy should be changed to protect ethnic minority children against HBV infection.
