Hepatitis

Hepatitis A, B, and C are three different viruses; each virus causes a distinct liver disease.
  1. Hepatitis A is usually caused by ingesting food or drinks that may have been contaminated with fecal matter.
  2. Hepatitis B is transmitted through an exchange of blood or bodily fluids. People can carry the hepatitis virus without any symptoms.
  3. Hepatitis C is spread through exchange of blood, often by sharing needles or other injection equipment.
