Virus: inflammation of the liver usually transmitted orally through fecal contamination of food or water. Flu like symptoms.
12. Hepatitis B virus: virus that causes inflammation of the liver; transmitted through any body fluid, including vaginal
secretions, semen, and blood. N/V, fever, fatigue, RUQ pain, joint pain, jaundice.
13. Hepatitis C virus: inflammation of the liver, trasnmitted by blood to blood contact, such as sharing needles, unsanitary
tattooing and accidental need sticks. Asymptomatic until liver damage occurs.
