Abstract
We read with great interest the article, “efficacy of
hepatitis B vaccine in those who lost hepatitis B surface
antigen during follow-up” by Taheri et al. published in
Hepatitis Monthly (1). In this article, the authors assessed
the efficacy of HBV vaccine in those who lost their HBsAg
without seroconverssion to anti-HBs antibody with no
detectable anti-HBs antibody and HBV DNA in their sera.
