摘要
The stools of slaughtered pigs were screened for hepatitis E virus (HEV). HEV RNA was detected in 7.3% of the samples. HEV strains were characterized as genotype 3 subtype c, a cluster previously not described in Italy. These findings provide evidence that slaughterhouse workers may be exposed to HEV infection.
