Viral hepatitis is one of the major health concerns worldwide, particularly in Asian countries. Mongolia, which is located in northern Asia, between Russia and China, is confronting various infectious diseases, such as viral hepatitis and tuberculosis. As for healthy individuals in Mongolia, the reported prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) was 9 or 10% and the reported prevalence of anti-hepatitis C virus ranged from 11 to 25%. We reported a markedly high prevalence of hepatitis D virus RNA (83%) among apparently healthy individuals with HBsAg in Ulaanbaatar. Also due to lack of proper mechanisms to handle sewerage, disinfection, and lack of clean water supply across the country, hepatitis A is endemic in Mongolia. Moreover, Mongolia ranked in the high-prevalence zone for hepatitis B, D, and C.

病毒性肝炎是全球主要的健康问题之一,在亚洲国家尤为如此。蒙古国位于亚洲北部,介于俄罗斯和中国之间,正面临各种传染病,如病毒性肝炎和结核病。对于蒙古国的健康个体,报告的乙肝表面抗原(HBsAg)流行率为9%或10%,抗丙型肝炎病毒的报告流行率在11%至25%之间。我们报告了乌兰巴托表面健康的HBsAg携带者中丁型肝炎病毒RNA的流行率显著较高(83%)。此外,由于该国缺乏处理污水、消毒的适当机制以及清洁水供应不足,甲型肝炎在蒙古国呈地方流行。此外,蒙古国在乙肝、丁肝和丙肝的高流行区之列。
