Model results for temporal change in horizontal force of infection and relative importance of transmission routes under UN medium variant. a Predicted evolution of the age-specific HBV force of infection from the horizontal transmission route at specific time points over the entire course of the DT. Predicted HBV incidence by transmission route over the entire course of the DT: b horizontal, c vertical, and d sexual (Note the order of magnitude difference in vertical scales for horizontal transmission (b) and vertical and sexual transmission (c) and (d))
