摘要：

Following an outbreak of hepatitis B (HBV) in a municipal house of correction, HBV markers were detected in 173/406 (43 percent) inmates and 10/129 (8 percent) staff. Of the 173 HBV-infected inmates, 14 (8 percent) had hepatitis D (HDV) markers compared to 0/10 staff members. Intravenous drugs use (IVDU) was most strongly associated with HBV marker presence. Increasing duration of imprisonment, history of hepatitis B and especially IVDU were associated with the prevalence of HDV markers.
