44. Hepatitis C: An Epidemic For Anyone This public health awareness site, hosted by Dr. C. Everett Koop, providesextensive information about hepatitis C and the hepatitis c epidemic. http://www.epidemic.org/

Continue Hepatitis C is a life-threatening, blood borne disease of the liver. It is caused by a virus, and is far more easily transmitted than HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. It is suspected that there are, at present, more than 4.5 million people in the United States that are infected with hepatitis C, and more than 200 million around the world - far more people than are infected with HIV. Hepatitis C is rapidly becoming a global epidemic, and this makes hepatitis C one of the greatest public health threats faced in this century, and perhaps one of the greatest threats to be faced in the next century. Hepatitis is a disease characterized by inflammation of the liver, usually producing swelling and, in many cases, permanent damage to liver tissues. Liver disease strikes at the very heart of the body's functions and processes, and can be life-threatening. You cannot live without a liver. A number of different agents can cause hepatitis, including infectious diseases, chemical poisons, drugs and alcohol. Viral hepatitis refers to a set of at least six viruses that are known to cause hepatitis, which vary in their severity and characteristics. These are hepatitis A (HAV), hepatitis B (HBV), hepatitis C (HCV), hepatitis D (HDV), hepatitis E (HEV), and hepatitis G (HGV). Hepatitis C can lead to serious, permanent liver damage, and in many cases, death. The Hepatitis C (HCV) virus was identified in 1989. Unlike the other types of viral hepatitis, hepatitis C is very difficult for the immune system to overcome. Hepatitis C is a one of a special set of viruses, called RNA viruses, which can outmanuever the human immune system. They do this by mutating rapidly, often evolving faster than the immune system can develop an effective response to them. Infections by RNA viruses like Hepatitis C are hard to beat - and can be very dangerous.

Learn about the risk factors of hepatitis C About Hepatitis Hepatitis is a disease of the liver that is often caused by a virus. Hepatitis simply means inflammation of the liver. There are several different kinds of hepatitis caused by different hepatitis viruses. In each case, the virus, once inside the body, begins to live in the liver cells, interferes with the cells' normal activities, and then uses the cells to make more of the virus. Hepatitis Transmission Different hepatitis viruses are spread in different ways, as explained in How Hepatitis Is Spread . If you suspect that you may have hepatitis or think you have been in contact with an infected person or a contaminated object, consult your health care professional as soon as possible. Types of Hepatitis The most common types of hepatitis are hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C.

Name of the Organism: Hepatitis A Virus Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is classified with the enterovirus group of the Picornaviridae family. HAV has a single molecule of RNA surrounded by a small (27 nm diameter) protein capsid and a buoyant density in CsCl of 1.33 g/ml. Many other picornaviruses cause human disease, including polioviruses, coxsackieviruses, echoviruses, and rhinoviruses (cold viruses). 2. Nature of Acute Disease: The term hepatitis A (HA) or type A viral hepatitis has replaced all previous designations: infectious hepatitis, epidemic hepatitis, epidemic jaundice, catarrhal jaundice, infectious icterus, Botkins disease, and MS-1 hepatitis. 3. Nature of Disease: CDC Case Definition What is a "Case Definition"? Overview of Public Health Surveillance Hepatitis A is usually a mild illness characterized by sudden onset of fever, malaise, nausea, anorexia, and abdominal discomfort, followed in several days by jaundice. The infectious dose is unknown but presumably is 10-100 virus particles. 4. Diagnosis of Human Illness:

Name of the Organism: Hepatitis E Virus Hepatitis E Virus (HEV) has a particle diameter of 32-34 nm, a buoyant density of 1.29 g/ml in KTar/Gly gradient, and is very labile. Serologically related smaller (27-30 nm) particles are often found in feces of patients with Hepatitis E and are presumed to represent degraded viral particles. HEV has a single-stranded polyadenylated RNA genome of approximately 8 kb. Based on its physicochemical properties it is presumed to be a calici -like virus. 2. Nature of Acute Disease: The disease caused by HEV is called hepatitis E, or enterically transmitted non-A non-B hepatitis (ET-NANBH). Other names include fecal-oral non-A non-B hepatitis,and A-like non-A non-B hepatitis. Note: This disease should not be confused with hepatitis C, also called parenterally transmitted non-A non-B hepatitis (PT-NANBH), or B-like non-A non-B hepatitis, which is a common cause of hepatitis in the U.S. 3.

Also see: What I Need To Know About Hepatitis C Introduction Risk Factors and Transmission Clinical Symptoms and Signs ... Patient Education Materials Introduction The hepatitis C virus (HCV) is one of the most important causes of chronic liver disease in the United States. It accounts for about 15 percent of acute viral hepatitis, 60 to 70 percent of chronic hepatitis, and up to 50 percent of cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, and liver cancer. Almost 4 million Americans, or 1.8 percent of the U.S. population, have antibody to HCV (anti-HCV), indicating ongoing or previous infection with the virus. Hepatitis C causes an estimated 10,000 to 12,000 deaths annually in the United States. A distinct and major characteristic of hepatitis C is its tendency to cause chronic liver disease. At least 75 percent of patients with acute hepatitis C ultimately develop chronic infection, and most of these patients have accompanying chronic liver disease. Chronic hepatitis C varies greatly in its course and outcome. At one end of the spectrum are patients who have no signs or symptoms of liver disease and completely normal levels of serum liver enzymes. Liver biopsy usually shows some degree of chronic hepatitis, but the degree of injury is usually mild, and the overall prognosis may be good. At the other end of the spectrum are patients with severe hepatitis C who have symptoms, HCV RNA in serum, and elevated serum liver enzymes, and who ultimately develop cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease. In the middle of the spectrum are many patients who have few or no symptoms, mild to moderate elevations in liver enzymes, and an uncertain prognosis.

The processor and packer of the berries could face criminal charges, sources told CNN. The affected states include: Arizona California Georgia Iowa Michigan Tennessee The United States Department of Agriculture, which provides surplus food to school lunch programs, distributed the berries. Map of the affected states Initial reports indicated 16 states and the District of Columbia might have received tainted strawberries and had been asked to "put a hold" on the fruit. But on Wednesday, the USDA and the Food and Drug Administration said only six states received berries believed linked to an outbreak in Michigan because all bore the same lot number. Those states, in addition to Michigan, are Arizona, California, Georgia, Iowa and Tennessee. Nine other states and Washington, D.C., received shipments from the same company, but the berries bore different lot numbers, the agencies said. Those states are Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Maine, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota and Wisconsin.

University of Florida researcher Dr. Gary Davis estimates a 528 percent increase in transplant demand by 2008, due in large part to hepatitis C. In addition, Davis predicts the number of people dying from hepatitis C will triple over the next decade, to about 30,000 a year. The study, released at a meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, was based on a projection of current infection rates. Davis said that "cases with major complications of chronic hepatitis C will increase dramatically unless effective treatment can be developed."
