How To Prevent And Manage Hepatitis E

Hepatitis E is a severe liver disease caused by the hepatitis E virus (HEV). Hepatitis E virus is among the five known hepatitis viruses that cause various health problems to humans, including liver failure. The HEV virus tends to be similar to hepatitis A since it is not chronic and it eventually leaves your system. While acute cases of hepatitis E infection are rare in the United States, hepatitis E is highly prevalent in developing nations in the Middle East, Central and Southeast Asia, Central America, and Africa where it causes many deaths.
