Also, are you wanting information on all of the Hepatitis viruses or just one in particular (such as hep A, B, C, etc.)? How did it began years ago

Unfortunately, I did not find the exact origination for Hepatitis C... But I do know that it occurs most frequently in Egypt. Out of their entire population, 18% is infected. That's 11,622,010 cases in Egypt. India, on the other hand, has more cases, but only 2% of it's population. There were 18,747,774 cases of Hepatitis C in India as of May, 2006. -Starfish

The origin of hepatitis C virus is said to have spread through developing countries in the twentieth century. The epidemic was fueled by new parental transmission routes that were associated with immunizations, blood transfusions, and injecting drug use.

It is unknown how hepatitis A actually started since it was just discovered in the United States about 30 years ago. Scientists believe it has been around for hundreds of years but are unable to pinpoint where it began.
