Hepatitis can vary in transmissibility depending on the type. Hepatitis A and E are primarily spread through contaminated food and water, making them less transmissible in direct person-to-person contact. In contrast, Hepatitis B and C are highly transmissible through blood and bodily fluids, including sexual contact. Therefore, while some forms of hepatitis are highly transmissible, others are less so.
No, but it's a highly transmissible disease that reduces an animal's ability to be normally productive.
Not a very good idea. Hep C is highly infectious.
Testing the blood of a person who has been bitten for immunity to hepatitis B and other diseases is always necessary after a human bite. Ideally, the biter should be tested as well for the presence of transmissible disease.
EMS professionals are least likely to encounter Hepatitis E virus (HEV) in the continental US. While Hepatitis A and B are more common and transmissible in various settings, HEV is primarily associated with regions with poor sanitation and is rarely reported in the US. Most cases of HEV in the US are linked to travel to endemic areas rather than local transmission.
No.
Transmissible
It is called infective hepatitis or hepatitis A
If the dog has a Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumor (CTVT), one of the only two transmissible cancers, then it is possible for the dog to infect another dog by touch. It is not, however, transmissible to humans.
I'm not sure if there is a home test or not for Hepatitis C, but this is not something to be taken lightly. I would HIGHLY recommend that you speak with your physician. A simple blood test can determine if you have Hepatitis. If you have the slightest inclination that you may have Hepatitis, please get tested. Hepatitis C may lay dormant in your liver for decades, and the damage may be done before you have any symptoms.
no alcoholic hepatitis not same as hepatitis c
Hepatitis c is highly contagious disease. It is transmitted from blood to blood. If a person has hepatitis c, the only way silverware would be contagious, if there blood was on it, someone touching it with a open wound, cut,sore. The infected blood would have to come in contact with another persons blood.
