HBV and HCV infections are serious global health care problem because they may end with chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV infection results in approximately 2 billion human infections while HCV approximately 160 million individuals. Raw database were collected from General health department at Babylon Health directorate for 715505 investigated person during a period from Jan. 2015 to Dec. 2019. Blood samples was drawn in Gel tube from suspects and centrifuged to separate the serum. Serum submitted for investigation of HbsAg and HCV Ab by both rapid immunochromatographic test and ELISA test. Actually the database taken from Babylon Health directorate and the results analysis depends upon dividing of data records from four health sectors, blood bank record lab, health care checking lab, pre-surgery checking, Marriage lab, thalassemia lab, Hemodialysis lab Prisoner and foreigners lab. The results revealed that, total positive cases were 4284 and 2260 for "HBV and HCV" respectively. The highest no. of cases for both "HBV and HCV" were recorded in 2018 (976 and 467) and (961 and 557) for "HBV and HCV" respectively. The incidence rate of "HBV and HCV" were varies worldwide. The results revealed that the occurrence rate (Mean ± SD) of "HBV" was (0.627±0.134) while for HCV was (0.327±0.084). The results revealed that, there is no defined month or semester for high rate infections. The high prevalence percentage were showed for prisoner-foreigner category (48.53 and 45.95 for HBV and HCV respectively) followed by surgery (22.66 and 19.03 for HBV and HCV respectively), blood bank (14.03 and 13.95 for HBV and HCV respectively) and in married (7.79 and 3.92 for HBV and HCV respectively. The current study conclude the high prevalence percentage of HBV (duplicate) than HCV with no seasonality of occurrence and the Prisoners and foreigners, Surgery, blood donor and hemodialysis were mostly involved with HBV and HCV infection.
