Types of Viral Hepatitis
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis A virus mainlyrefers to acute hepatitis. Almost all infected people can fully recover and obtain lifelong immunity after treatment, but a small number of hepatitis A infected people will still die from severe hepatitis.
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B virus can cause acute or chronic hepatitis B. Long-term carrying of the virus causes continuous damage to the liver, and studies have proved that hepatitis B virus infection is the main cause of liver cancer patients in Asian countries.
Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C virus can cause acute or chronic hepatitis, and direct antiviral drugs can cure more than 95% of people infected.
Hepatitis D
Hepatitis D virus relies on hepatitis B virus to replicate. It is often associated with hepatitis B infection, which can accelerate liver disease-related deaths and the development of liver cancer, thus considered as a severe form of chronic viral hepatitis. People susceptible to hepatitis B and hepatitis D co-infection include residents of high-endemic areas with hepatitis D, hemodialysis patients, and injecting drug users.
Hepatitis E
Hepatitis E is mainly transmitted through the digestive tract, i.e. through ingestion of contaminated water and food. Pigs are the main animal reservoir for hepatitis E virus and can be infected through contact with or consumption of undercooked pork.
To prevent hepatitis, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis E vaccines can be administered. What's more, pay attention to dietary hygiene to prevent the spread of hepatitis A and E through the digestive tract. Cut off blood, mother-to-child and sexual transmission routes to prevent hepatitis B, hepatitis C and hepatitis D. Regular check-ups are also key.
