Abstract
We studied 67 hepatitis C virus (HCV) isolates from 64 hospitalized patients in Shanghai, China. Genotype 1 was prevalent, and genotypes 2, 3, 6 were found for the first time in Shanghai. A rare mixed infection with three subtypes (1a, 1b, 2a) was found. The complete genome sequence of a subtype 3b isolate was determined and analyzed.
