The frequency of hepatitis C virus antibodies in serum as detected by the "Ortho Antibody Elisa Test System", was investigated in a consecutive series of multitransfused haematological patients who had received a total of 3,627 transfusions. Two out of 43 patients (4.6%; 95% confidence interval 0.6-15.8%) were found seropositive. Among Danish blood donors the frequency of seropositivity has been reported to 0.2-0.3%. The clinical significance of the seropositivity is underlined by the finding at autopsy of chronic active hepatitis in one of the two patients found anti-HCV positive.
