Viral hepatitis A and B are serious public health problems all over the world. Effective prophylactic measures and improvement in the hygienic and sanitary conditions have considerably modified the diseases trend, characterized by high prevalence levels in developing countries. In this paper the epidemiology of hepatitis A and B is reviewed, focused on endemic areas, on the basis of data collected from local and international studies in order to evaluate prevention strategies for both local population and travelers.

    We report the experimental evidence that the Microwave radiation generated by a quantum conductor (a dc+ac biased tunnel Junction between normal metals placed at very low temperature) is squeezed, I.e. that the fluctuations on one quadrature can go below that of vacuum. Whereas any classical current...
