Molecular-genetic peculiarities of blood borne viral hepatitis pathogens among HIV-infected people living in the Far Eastern Federal district
Abstract
Epidemiologic surveillance over HIV-infection and viral hepatitis B and C is necessary in order to take timely and effective preventive measures in order to provide population wellbeing. Conducted analysis revealed an increase in prevalence and mortality rates among HIV-infected citizens of nine constituent entities of the Far Eastern federal district (FEFD) during years 2006-2019. HIV incidence downward trend was detected in FEFD as well as in Russian Federation in general. Considerable growth of mortality rates was due to registration of 79.9±1.1% of all fatal cases in FEFD among HIV-infected people living in the Primorsky region in 2019. Percentage of chronic viral hepatitis B had an increasing tendency when fraction of viral hepatitis C was relatively stable during years 2006-2019. Prevalent genotype of hepatitis B virus was genovariant D and for hepatitis C virus – subtypes 3a and 1b.
