Abstract

This study was performed to determine the seroprevalence of EBV infection in young adults of South Korea. A total of 196 subjects were enrolled for the analysis of EBV seroprevalence. All subjects were males and their median age was 21 years old (range, 19-24 years). The overall anti-VCA IgG seropositivity prevalence was 87.2% (171/196). This result suggests that approximately 10% of young adults belongs to the risk group of infectious mononucleosis, even in South Korea that has been known as a highly seroprevalent country.
