       Compared with hepatitis A and hepatitis B, many people do not know about hepatitis E, hepatitis E should not be ignored, and susceptible people should be recommended for vaccination.

　　It may lead to asymptomatic, or liver failure

　　Hepatitis E is a common acute viral hepatitis caused by hepatitis E virus (HEV), which mainly invades the liver, but also other organs, such as the stomach, spleen, kidney, large intestine, small intestine, nervous system, etc.

　　Hepatitis E is usually transmitted through contaminated food or water, that is, through the digestive tract.

　　It can also be transmitted from animal sources, such as pigs, cattle, sheep, mice and other animals infected with hepatitis E virus, which can be transmitted to humans.

　　The reason why hepatitis E is easy to be ignored is that its manifestations vary from asymptomatic to liver failure.

　　A few infected people will have jaundice, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, red and yellow urine, liver pain and other symptoms.

　　Severe cases may lead to severe hepatitis and fulminant liver failure.

　　Indeed, those with mild symptoms of hepatitis E can be asymptomatic, and most people can recover from the disease after the virus is expelled from the body.

　　However, when encountering some patients with basic liver disease, people with low immunity, elderly educators and naturally pregnant women, it is often easy to cause irreversible serious economic consequences, even life threatening.

　　It was pointed out that according to the meta-analysis included from 2008 to 2019. the incidence of chronic hepatitis with liver failure reached 34.7%, and the mortality of hospitalized patients reached 13.8%, which was far higher than other non overlapping infection patients.

　　Eight people are vulnerable to severe hepatitis E

　　What are the high-risk groups of hepatitis E?

　　It is pointed out that people with basic liver diseases (hepatitis, alcoholic hepatitis, steatohepatitis, drug-related liver diseases, etc.), women of childbearing age, middle-aged and elderly people, people who often go out to eat, food related employees, livestock and seafood industry employees, and migrant workers studying abroad are particularly vulnerable to hepatitis E and need to be vigilant.

　　Prevent hepatitis E with vaccines

　　Hepatitis E is an infectious disease, which is generally susceptible to the whole population.

　　It indicates that it is easy to become a high-risk group.

　　As long as you are over the age of 16. you should be vaccinated against hepatitis E in time, which is the most effective and safe preventive measure at present.
