A survey among Auckland dentists has shown a high experience of viral hepatitis occuring during practising years. The prevalence of dentists affected is higher than for similar groups of American dentists, and the incidence of viral hepatitis among dentists practising in Auckland appears to be rising. This study supports the view that infection with viral hepatitis should be regarded as a occupational health risk for practising dentists.
奥克兰牙医的一项调查显示，在从业期间感染病毒性肝炎的情况很常见。受影响的牙医患病率高于美国同类牙医群体，且在奥克兰执业的牙医中病毒性肝炎的发病率似乎在上升。这项研究支持以下观点，即病毒性肝炎感染应被视为执业牙医面临的职业健康风险。
