Needlestick injury was the highest risk factor for the acquisition of HBV, with highest events in the intervention work-type. Two thirds of HCWs were still susceptible to HBV infection. Intervention strategies at the national level are required to mount prevention, control, and management of HBV infection in HCWs. ## Keywords - Medicine - HBsAg - Seroprevalence - Hepatitis B virus - Hepatitis B - Health care - Immunology - Internal medicine - Antibody - Serology - Virus - Economics - Economic growth --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
