## Abstract The high frequency of mutation during hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has resulted in 8 genotypes (A–H) with varying effects on disease severity and treatment efficacy. However, analysis of intrapatient HBV diversity is limited, especially during HIV co‐infection. Therefore, a prelimi
