“…Thus effective and safe therapy is still lacking, which stands in contrast to the latest development in therapeutic areas of HBV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections. As the exact data on prevalence of this infection in some countries as well as natural history of this disease are still incomplete, further studies are warranted. …”
