Using viral metagenomics, we analyzed the virome of a blood sample from a hepatitis E patient. We identified viral sequences showing significant similarity to human pegivirus (HPgV), anellovirus, and hepatitis E virus. The near-complete genome of a genotype 3 HPgV strain was acquired and characterized.
