Description The autors indetify two non-standard cases of medical staff, who were injured by contaminated, sharp objects. These cases are interesting in that neither staff member didn´t have proof of vaccination against viral hepatitis B or proof of positive serum antibodies against HBsAg. The authors deal with the concrete outcome od these two cases in relation to the epidemiology of viral hepatitis B. They are based on current legislation relating to occupational services, to system od epidemiological vigilance for selected infections, to vaccination against infectious diseases and public health and on guidelines for general practitioner in the Czech Republic.
