Hepatitis A is a viral infection that primarily spreads through the consumption of contaminated food and water, particularly ready-to-eat items that have been handled by an infected person. The virus can survive on surfaces and in food if proper hygiene practices are not followed. Symptoms include fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and jaundice, and while it usually resolves on its own, vaccination is an effective preventive measure. Ensuring good sanitation and food safety practices can significantly reduce the risk of transmission.

Hepatitis A virus, which can be transmitted through contaminated food or water.
Is hepatitis A a virus or bacteria?

The aids virus and the hepatitis b virus exit the body through?
vaccines.
What is the virus causing hepatitis?
The hepatitis virus is actually named that particular virus for which it refers to. For example, the virus for hepatitis B is called the hepatitis B virus (HBV), and the virus for hepatitis C is called hepatitis C virus (HCV), and so on.
What pathogens cause hepatitis b?
The causative agent for Hepatitis B is Hepatitis B virus.
What is the name of the pathogen that causes hepatitis C?
Hepatitis B is caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV). Hepatitis C is caused by the Hepatitis C virus (HCV). Hepatitis B virus belongs to the family Hepadnaviridae, and the genus Orthohepadnavirus. Hepatitis C virus belongs to the family Flaviviridae, and the genus Hepacivirus.
Which hepatitis virus requires co-infection with another hepatitis virus?
Hepatitis D requires co-infection with the B type.
Which hepatitis virus lives in the gastrointestial tract?
Hepatitis A.
What type of pathogen is hepatitis b?

What type of pathogen causes hepatitis?

Hepatitis virus comes under which type of virus?
Several diseases of the liver, collectively known as hepatitis, are caused by viruses. The viruses involved, five of which have been reasonably well characterized, come from a wide range of virus families. Hepatitis A virus is a picornavirus, a small single strand RNA virus; hepatitis B virus belongs to the hepadnavirus family of double stranded DNA viruses; hepatitis C virus is a flavivirus, a single stand RNA virus; hepatitis E, also an RNA virus, is similar to a calicivirus. Hepatitis D which is also known as Delta agent is a circular RNA that is more similar to a plant a viroid than a complete virus.
