Genotype Distribution and Molecular Epidemiology of Hepatitis C Virus in Hubei, Central China

“…First, in the 1950s, a cooperative medical system was developed in China, which provided basic care and preventive services (e.g., vaccination) to all people [ 27 ]. However, the limited medical knowledge and professional training received by the health-care providers, especially during the years 1966–1976 when the “Cultural Revolution” occurred and medical schools and specialist hospital departments were closed [ 27 , 28 ], may have facilitated the dissemination of bloodborne viruses (such as HCV) by unsafe injection as well as traditional Chinese acupuncture [ 29 , 30 ]. Second, located in central China and known as “the thoroughfare leading to nine provinces”, Hubei has been acting as an important national transportation hub, which made it a possible origin of 1b transmission in China at that time.…”

Correction: Molecular Epidemiologic Characterization of a Clustering HCV Infection Caused by Inappropriate Medical Care in Heyuan City of Guangdong, China

“…In China, the two predominant HCV subtypes, 1b and 2a, are generally caused by poor social and medical conditions, as well as the medical malpractice, with distinctive transmission and evolution features [19][20][21]. One cluster of the 1b subtype originated in 1968 and dispersed fast between 1968 and 1990.…”
