Figure 1 Seroprevalence of hepatitis B virus infection in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients according to birth year in Taiwan.
The seroprevalence declined significantly from 20.3% in those who were born before in 1984 (n = 3034) when the neonatal hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination was provided to newborns whose mothers tested positive for HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) to 3.7% in those who were born after 1986 (n = 507) when universal neonatal vaccination and catch-up vaccination were implemented[23,24].
