One month after discharge from hospital 217 patients with mild and moderate forms of viral hepatitis A and B were examined. There were 166 recurvalescents of viral hepatitis A aged 17 to 30 years old, 83 of whom had had a mild form of the disease and 83 a moderate one. There were 51 reconvalescents of viral hepatitis B at the age of 22-60, who had a moderate form of the disease.
