• One type is blood and close contact routes.

There are many types of these hepatitis in this natural world. If these hepatitis is caused by infection, they can be summarized as these two categories. The first type is transmitted through the fecal or oral route, such as hepatitis A and hepatitis E. These are all transmitted through the fecal mouth. The way, that is, the virus passes through the human body and is excreted through feces, and the excreted virus contaminates water, food, etc., and then eats it through other people. This is called the fecal-oral route.
