Hey!! is anyone here know the differenc e between hepatitis A , B , and C?
Among those viruses which is curable or something worst?

Thanks for the information Stef. So sad with my situation because I am pretty sure that I acquired this virus since birth so I have this possibility of becoming chronic.Even the doctor told me that it has a low percentage of healing than those who acquired it during adulthood.
But I still hope GOD will help me with this.

complitely different viruses which has liver in common for replication, it is like comparing flu virus to hbv, nothing in common

hbv is most similar to hiv, herpes,cmv.....like hiv you can lower replication but eradication is not possible now, only 10-30% clear it by combos of antivirals and interferon
hbv gets cronic only when infection is at birth or as a baby, as an adult clears 98% times

hcv is similar to west nile virus, it doesn t integrate in human dna so once hivrna gets und you are free of the virus.with new antivirals and the ones on trial it gets to 100% curable, it even gets eradicated by interferon

hav doens t matter, it is less dangerous than flu, it clears 100%
