Abstract
This disease appeared to be consistent in most cases epidemiologically and clinically with hepatitis A. Lower socio-economic groups had higher total case rates and higher rates among children, but adults had lower clinical rates. It is suggested that poor hygiene and sanitation and crowded living conditions are factors contributing to the infection at an early age, with resulting higher immunity among adults.[long dash]MDS.
