Hepatitis E surveillance in Sweden involves the notification and reporting of suspected and confirmed hepatitis E cases to the national surveillance database SmiNet hosted by the Public Health Agency of Sweden. Clinicians and diagnostic laboratories report clinical and laboratory data on notified cases, including demographic, epidemiological, and diagnostic testing information. The County Medical Officer is responsible for contact tracing notified cases to identify potential transmission routes. Between 1997-2015, 173 hepatitis E cases were notified in Sweden, with most being travel-related and acquired through food or water. Studies show hepatitis E virus RNA has been detected in pigs, wild boars, and moose in Sweden, with genetic sequencing linking some human strains to those found in local animals.
