Abstract
The prevalence of hepatitis δ virus (HDV) was evaluated in 1027 HBsAg positive people living in five provinces, two municipalities and four autonomous regions of China. Seventeen people had antibodies to HDV (anti‐HD — 13 of 454 asymptomatic carriers of HBsAg, two of 151 patients with chronic persistent hepatitis and two of 59 patients with chronic active hepatitis). All of those who were anti‐HD lived in the autonomous regions of Inner Mongolia, Tibet, and Xinjiang.
