Abstract

Epidemiological investigation of a focal outbreak of jaundice in the KD block of Pitampura, Delhi during February-March 1992 revealed that 7.0 per cent of the population of the block suffered from viral hepatitis. There was no age or sex predilection. Epidemiological findings and Serological studies suggest that the epidemic was due to Hepatitis E (Enterically transmitted Non A and Non B) virus.
