How do hepatitis c enter the body?

Answer 1

Most usually via contaminated water and food. Hep A is expelled from a host's body via faecal matter and then contracted by another via oral ingestion. This is one of many reasons for washing your hands after using the toilet, because anything you touch thereafter may be infected. This is especially relevant in food preparation but also for any amount of social contact or physical use of a common object.

Being in confined spaces with hosts (such as on a packed train) may also lead to the same situations where you are accidentally touching other people.

In places like England, where I live, Hep A isn't very common at all due to hygiene standards and water treatment, etc. But in third world countries that don't have the same facilities, it can be a large problem as there is little way of stopping a pandemic.

Hep A, however, does not always present symptoms. Which is kind of positive and negative. On the one hand, many hosts will not suffer. On the other, they can pass along the infection without having the knowledge required to prevent transmission.

Answer 2

Hepatitis A enters the body through contact of contaminated food or water.

Hepatitis B enters the body through sexual contact.
