Viral hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver due to viral
infection and there are groups of virus that affects the liver of
which hepatitis B and C viruses are the causative agents of sever
form of liver disease with high rate of mortality. Medical waste
handlers who undergo collection, transportation, and disposal of
medical wastes in the health institutions are at risk of exposure
to acquire those infections which transmit mainly as a result of
contaminated blood and other body fluids including injury with
sharp instruments, splash to the eye or mucous membrane. A
cross-sectional study was conducted in government health
institutions in Gondar town. Prevalence rates of HBV and HCV were
significantly higher in medical waste handlers than those in
non-medical waste handlers examined. Regularly supply of personal
protection equipments, training, pre and post-exposure protection
of medical waste handlers, may significantly reduce the risk of
acquiring infectious agents.
