Hepatitis a

Hepatitis A is an infectious disease caused by the hepatitis A virus, which attacks the liver and can cause jaundice, fatigue, abdominal pain, and loss of appetite. It is most commonly acquired through contaminated food or water, but can also be contracted through close contact with an infected person. Vaccination is the best means of prevention. Treatment focuses on symptom relief, although complete recovery is possible. Vaccination is recommended for people at risk of infection and those travelling to areas where the disease is common.
