An efficiency of vaccination program in one of Iraqi providences was investigated for clinical
laboratory staffs who consider an important group of health care workers by detecting probable infection w ith
hepatitis B virus among these workers. Vaccines against hepatitis B were the most effective tool in preventing
the transmission of Hepatitis B virus. Seven health care units of Karbala-Iraq were investigated for the
efficiency of vaccination program among its clinical laboratory workers. After analyzed of blood by ELISA
assay, all of laboratory workers gave negative results and only two technician males at AL-Hussein general
hospital revealed positive with IgG anti-HBsAg. More than half numbers (51.7% males and 58.9% females)
of workers were vaccinated with complete three doses of HBsAg vaccine and others were revealed variable
numbers of doses receiving. In conclusion, negative results of HBV infection in clinical laboratory w orkers
