R E Tettmar et al. J Infect. 1987 Jul.

Abstract

A total of 858 British adults were screened for immunity to hepatitis A. Immune rates ranged from 13% in the 16-20 years age group to 61% in the 51-55 years age group. Factors affecting these rates are discussed and the implications for pre-immunisation screening are considered.
