HIV, hepatitis B and hepatitis C coinfection in Kenya.

Reena Shah Harania1, Jane Karuru, Mark Nelson, Justin Stebbing.   

Abstract

There are few data regarding hepatitis and HIV coinfection in Africa. In 378 HIV seropositive individuals in Nairobi, 23 (6%) were hepatitis B virus (HBV) and HIV coinfected, four (1%) were hepatitis C virus (HCV) and HIV coinfected and one patient was infected with all three viruses. Coinfected individuals were more likely to be men and older; a lack of HBV vaccination was a risk factor for HIV/HBV coinfection (P = 0.001) and tenofovir containing regimens appeared most effective at reducing HBV viral load.
