Most of the children get exposed to hepatitis A virus due to not so good sanitation. Only few of them get hepatitis and rest get sub-clinical infection. Most of them get recovered and get immunity to the infection. Even to day also most of the rural Indian population takes treatment from the unqualified doctors. They get the hepatitis B infection from them. Most of the children recover from the infection and get immunity against the hepatitis B virus infection. Same is true for other strains of the hepatitis viruses.
Hepatitis refers to a condition in which the liver is inflamed, it can be causes by a number of different factors, including viruses. There are several hepatitis viruses, each one is distinct. Hepatitis A is vaccine preventable; it is a short-term (acute) infection and there is no cure. Hepatitis B is also vaccine preventable; it can be a short-term (acute) infection, but in cases where the immune system fails to fight off the initial infection it can become a long-term (chronic) infection. Chronic hepatitis B is not curable, but there are treatments available that can help manage viral progression and damage. Hepatitis C is NOT vaccine preventable; in some cases the immune system will fight off the initial infection, but most adults who are exposed to the hepatitis C virus will develop the chronic infection. While there is no vaccine for hepatitis C, there are medications that can get rid of the virus. Hepatitis D only occurs in combination with hepatitis B, therefore the vaccine for hepatitis B is also effective against hepatitis D.
Vaccination against hepatitis A is unnecessary if you have already had the infection.
No, it just prevents it before infection. If a person has a Hepatitis B infection there are other medications that are sometimes given.
Other name is infectious hepatitis or HAV...it's basically a viral infection
HBsAg stands for hepatitis B surface antigen. This antigen is a protein on the surface of the hepatitis B virus and is the marker used to diagnose acute or chronic hepatitis B infection. Detection of HBsAg in the blood indicates an active hepatitis B infection.
Other infections which can be caused by Salmonella include:.infection of the liver (hepatitis)
