Relation between Hepatitis A and B?


Any case in which viruse of hepatitis A activate the viruse of hepatitis B in person - carrier of viruse hepatitis B

Hepatitis A can be transmitted from food. It's an oral-fecal route. If the one handled the food didn't was their hands after using the bathroom this is how you get it. It's curable but self limiting. Unlike Hepatitis B it's not curable and it's transmitted through infected blood and semen. There's a vaccine available to prevent the disease. By the way they don't activate each other.

They are two different types of viruses that affect liver and cause inflammation there, Hepatitis A is transferred via fecal-oral route (infected food, drinking water etc)but Hepatitis B is transferred by body secretions like blood & semen. Altough both viruses cause hepatitis but they are not related to each other in term of causing disease and immunity against viruses, I mean Hepatitis A does not activate Hepatitis B in a carrier but in a patient with Hepatitis B who has already had a severe liver damage, infection by Hepatitis A virus can cause a serious problem.
