Viral hepatitis A is a viral hepatitis with acute onset. The onset is related to infection with hepatitis A virus. The disease is highly infectious and controlled according to the requirements of type B infectious diseases. The source of infection is acute patients and latent infections. The faeces discharged by the source of infection carry hepatitis A virus, which may contaminate water sources and cause the spread of the disease.
