Abstract

We detected a prevalence (11%) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection among male adult villagers (n = 149) in far western Nepal where migration to India is common. Although only one migrant-returnee was infected with both HBV and HIV, co-infection may occur more frequently in future as the HIV prevalence is high (8%).
