3 Worldwide HBV Infection
Epidemiology Worldwide HBV Infection More than 2 billion people infected during lifetime Up to 2 million die each year from HBV infection Worldwide there are ~ million HBsAg carriers In the WHO European Region, 14 million people are estimated to live with chronic hepatitis B; Up to 36,000 deaths are attributable to HBV every year in Europe Annual infection in US ~320,000, ~32,000 HBsAg carriers Persistent HBV is considered a significant risk factor for development of primary liver cancer Epidemiology Virology Vaccine Production Clinical Summary
