The authors examined the hepatitis B and C virus infections among health-care workers. Laboratory examinations involving one third (830 people) of the staff found HBV infections symptomless at 101 people (12.2%), 11 people 1.3%) became HBsAg carriers. 13 people (1.56%) had HCV antibody. 4 people remained HCV carriers (0.5%). From 19 workers infected by hepatitis between 1989-96, 2 people remained HBsAg carriers. In a well prepared vaccination programme 871 volunteers were vaccinated (49% of hospital workers). Hepatitis viral infections of hospital employees, results of their laboratory examinations, the date, the number of their vaccinations and their health condition can be followed in the computer registration of the hospital.
