Errata: Vol. 52, No. RR-1
In the MMWR Recommendations and Reports, "Prevention and Control of Infections with Hepatitis Viruses in
Correctional Settings," published on January 24, 2003, an error
occurred on page 4 in the second sentence of the paragraph
under Occupational Exposures. The sentence should read, "Occupational transmission of HBV infection among hospital-based workers has been linked to percutaneous and
mucous membrane exposures, and HCV infection has been primarily
associated with percutaneous exposure."
On page 12, in Box 6, the fourth item under Type of
Exposure should read, "Household (e.g., cell or dormitory) contact
--- to person with chronic HBV infection."
On page 2, errors occurred in Table 1, and on page 20, errors occurred in
Table 5. The correct tables follow.
