pubmed:abstractText |
Unsafe injections and transfusions used during treatments are considered to be responsible for many cases of transmission of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in developing countries, but cannot account for a substantial proportion of present infections. The aim of the present work was to investigate familial clustering of HCV infection in a population living in a highly endemic area.
