Anti-HCV prevalence in major cities and regions of Georgia. The highest regional anti-HCV prevalence was found in Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region in northwest Georgia (10.9%), particularly in the city of Zugdidi (14.0%, nearly double the national prevalence of 7.7%). In general, anti-HCV prevalence was higher in cities than in the surrounding rural areas. [Notes: *Anti-HCV prevalence estimates were not calculated for Guria region, Mtskheta-Mtianeti region, Racha-Lechkumi/Kvemo Svaneti region, or Samtskhe-Javakheti region due to insufficient sample size. **The occupied territories of Abkhazia and Samachablo (South Ossetia) were not included in the survey]
