Hepatitis A antibody seroprevalence among medical school students.

Sunhee Kim1, Ju-Hyung Lee, Jeong-Hwan Hwang, Chang-Seop Lee.   

Abstract

A total of 324 first- to third-year medical school students were examined for anti-hepatitis A virus IgG. Of these 324 students, 37 were found to be anti-hepatitis A virus IgG positive (11.4%). Mass screening of medical students for seropositivity and vaccination of nonimmune students should be considered before starting medical clerkships.
