This suggests that a significant proportion of patients with multi-site infection may have different strains infecting different sites.

Monti et al. reports real world data from a large PrEP cohort, suggesting that although HBV infection in PrEP users in low-prevalence countries were uncommon, it should still be considered and managed, including the opportunity to expand prevention services e.g. vaccination.
