D-hepat.

Hepatitis D: is a liver disease in both acute and chronic forms caused by the hepatitis D virus (HDV) that requires HBV for its replication. Hepatitis D infection cannot occur in the absence of hepatitis B virus. The coinfection or super infection of HDV with HBV causes a more severe disease than HBV monoinfection
A vaccine against hepatitis B is the only method to prevent HDV infection.
The routes of HDV transmission are the same as for HBV. Vertical transmission from mother to child is rare
Approximately 15 million people across the world are chronically coinfected with HDV and HBV. It is estimated that globally, 5% of HBsAg positive people are coinfected with HDV and the distribution is worldwide
Currently there is no effective antiviral treatment for hepatitis D
Hepatitis D infection can be prevented by hepatitis B immunization
