Estimates indicate that approximately 350 million people worldwide are infected with HBV and 170 million with HCV. Transmission of these viruses occurs mainly through blood, sexual contact, and mother-to-infant transmission. This study aimed to determine the epidemiology of HBV and HCV infections in high-risk populations in the cities covered by Jiroft University of Medical Sciences during the years 2014 to 2023.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Data were collected from HBV and HCV carriers reported to health networks of Jiroft University of Medical Sciences in a census manner. The data collection tool included checklists with demographic and clinical variables. The findings were reported in the form of descriptive statistics.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The mean and standard deviation of the age of the patients was 38.13&amp;plusmn;51.81 years. The frequency of HBV in women (60.6%) was higher than that of men (39.4%), while the frequency of HCV was reported to be higher in men (78.1%). Also, frequency of both types of hepatitis was observed more in married individuals.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
