Thanks for your reply steven.. is the percentage the same with or without treatment?

if you would stop taking meds like entecavir / hepsera, would the virus evolve and replicate more actively than before? if the VL is UND?  if the VL is still detectable?

For chronic infections, it's still about 1%.

Remember for chronic HBV, UND VL doesn't mean NO virus.  It means LOW virus.
