Officials still wary as hepatitis scare weakens Latest developments: Only 153 cases reported, all in Michigan Exposure to Hepatitis A not unusual The worst may be over in Michigan Company faces possible criminal charges ... Official defends Mexican farmers April 2, 1997 Web posted at: 10:10 p.m. EST (0310 GMT) WASHINGTON (CNN) Despite fears that thousands of school children in six states may have eaten strawberries contaminated with the Hepatitis A virus, only 153 cases in Michigan have been confirmed so far. The fruit was shipped to school districts in Arizona, California, Georgia, Iowa and Tennessee, as well, though no other sign of the illness has been reported. Nevertheless, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and state departments of education are scrambling to distribute medicine to prevent the disease, and to track down all of the tainted fruit. Their cause is aided by the fact that Hepatitis A is not a virulent disease. The exposure is believed to have been recent enough to be countered by injections of gamma globulin, which is effective if given within 14 days after the tainted fruit is eaten.

Risiko grupper: I.v. stofmisbrugere Svær klassisk hæmofili Patienter som har modtaget multiple transfusioner, før screening blev obligatorisk. Inkubationstid Gennemsnitligt 50 dage (15-150) Klinisk forløb HCV infektion giver anledning til HCV replikation primært i leveren. HCV er direkte cytotoksisk. Inflammation og nekrose er under den primære infektion ofte begrænset dvs. de fleste primære infektioner forløber subklinisk. Afgørende for evt. klinisk infektion er inoculums størrelse. 70-80% udvikler kronisk infektion. Hos det mindretal som ikke får kronisk infektion, giver anti-HCV ikke anledning til immunitet. Fulminant forløbende HCV infektion er beskrevet, men yderst sjældent. Progressions hastigheden af kronisk infektion er yderst varierende.1/3 vil få cirrose indenfor 20 år - 1/3 vil aldrig få cirrose. Samtidig HIV infektion betyder dårligere prognose.

Hepatitis C By Howard J. Worman, M. D. NEW: The Hepatitis C Sourcebook. By Howard J. Worman, M. D. The Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) HCV was discovered in 1989 by investigators at Chiron, Inc. Portions of the HCV genome were isolated by screening cDNA expression libraries made from RNA and DNA from chimpanzees infected with serum from a patient with post-transfusion non-A, non-B hepatitis. [Prior to the discovery of HCV, hepatitis following blood transfusion that was not caused by hepatitis A or hepatitis B was referred to as non-A, non-B hepatitis]. To identify portions of the genome that encoded viral proteins, the libraries were screened with antibodies from patients who had non-A, non-B hepatitis. These investigators went on to show that the virus they identified was responsible for the vast majority of cases of non-A, non-B hepatitis. They called the new virus hepatitis C virus (HCV). Subsequently, the complete genomes of various HCV isolates were cloned and sequenced by several groups. HCV is a positive, single-stranded RNA virus in the

COM ES TRANSMET LA MALALTIA? QUÈ ES POT FER PER PREVENIR AQUESTA MALALTIA? QUÈ S'HA DE FER QUAN HA APAREGUT UN CAS DE MALALTIA? QUAN ES POT TORNAR A LES ACTIVITATS NORMALS? QUÈ ÉS L'HEPATITIS A? L'hepatitis A és una infecció del fetge, causada pel virus del mateix nom. És més freqüent entre nens petits, la majoria dels quals tenen la malaltia de forma molt benigna o sense cap símptoma. Els nens més grans i els adults tenen més possibilitats de presentar-ne símptomes. De tota manera, les formes greus de la malaltia són molt poc freqüents. Els primers símptomes inclouen febre, pèrdua de la gana, nàusees, vòmits, cansament i malestar general. L'afectació de les cèl·lules del fetge causa coloració groga de la pell i dels ulls (icterícia). Això és acompanyat, generalment, per una coloració fosca de l'orina i femtes blanquinoses. Generalment, la recuperació és completa al cap de poques setmanes i és seguida per immunitat permanent. No hi ha portadors crònics del virus de l'hepatitis A. No hi ha tractament específic per a l'hepatitis A. Es pot seguir una activitat normal i una dieta regular. Quedar-se al llit no accelera la recuperació i només es recomana mentre duri el malestar general.

Hepatitis C can lead to chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis of the liver and even liver cancer. There is no cure or vaccine. It has been suggested by some researchers that Hepatitis C infection may be the major cause of liver disease in the United States. The use of alcohol may make the effects of Hepatitis C on the liver more severe. "Our observations suggest a significant epidemic in an unsuspecting population with little regular access to health care," notes study author Harold H. Harsch, MD

Fact Sheet No. 164 Revised October 2000 HEPATITIS C Hepatitis C is a viral infection of the liver which had been referred to as parenterally transmitted "non A, non B hepatitis" until identification of the causative agent in 1989. The discovery and characterization of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) led to the understanding of its primary role in post-transfusion hepatitis and its tendency to induce persistent infection. HCV is a major cause of acute hepatitis and chronic liver disease, including cirrhosis and liver cancer. Globally, an estimated 170 million persons are chronically infected with HCV and 3 to 4 million persons are newly infected each year. HCV is spread primarily by direct contact with human blood. The major causes of HCV infection worldwide are use of unscreened blood transfusions, and re-use of needles and syringes that have not been adequately sterilized. No vaccine is currently available to prevent hepatitis C and treatment for chronic hepatitis C is too costly for most persons in developing countries to afford. Thus, from a global perspective, the greatest impact on hepatitis C disease burden will likely be achieved by focusing efforts on reducing the risk of HCV transmission from nosocomial exposures (e.g. blood transfusions, unsafe injection practices) and high-risk behaviours (e.g. injection drug use).
