Übertragungswege der Hepatitis B

International Journal of Public Health, 1998, vol. 43, issue 1, S31-S33

Abstract: Hepatitis B is transmitted by three main routes: contact with blood and body fluids, sexual contacts, and perinatally from the infected mother to her newborn baby. Horizontal transmission within the household of an infected person is common, especially in families with infants In such situations, unnoticed contacts with blood probably account for most of the transmissions.
