    Abstract:
    The results of HCV genotype distribution between 1995 and 2007 in Polish blood donors were analyzed. Special attention was drawn into the analysis of HCV polymorphism isolated from blood donors in the early phase of infection (RNA HCV positive/anti-HCV negative). Such donors identified in Poland since 2000 when the NAT for HCV was introduced are very important for molecular epidemiology analysis. The increasing frequency of 3a and 4 genotypes is observed in comparison to blood donors and patients with anti-HCV antibodies.
