[Characteristics of the epidemic process manifested as chronic viral hepatitis].
The incidence rates of chronic viral hepatitis in Leningrad over the period of 1962-1984 were studied. The tendency towards a rise in total morbidity because of increased incidence of chronic hepatitis B was shown to appear in recent years. This increase in morbidity was mainly due to its rise among adult males and children, which led to the shift of morbidity to younger age groups. The seasonal rises of morbidity in winter and spring were found to be characteristic of viral hepatitis.
