Abstract :
I read with interest the published article by Bayani et al. (1) in your esteemed journal recently. The topic is important for health policy makers to find better view regarding epidemiology of hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection in the community. HAV is an enteric transmitted infection and it is the most common of causes of acute viral hepatitis in Iran and the world (2-4). This HAV is a transmitted via fecal-oral route virus through person to person contact and contaminated water and food and the mode transmission is slightly different in various parts of the world according to its prevalence in each region. The reported data from Iranian different groups showed significant differences across the regions (2-5). Different in sewage disposal with secondary contamination of drinking water and foods are the reason for this difference.
