HEPATITIS C COMMUNITY
what virus family is hep c

what virus family is hep c

i just read about somethng called canine hepatitis (yes, dogs get it), and it said it was one of the  virus family, adenovirus.
what is hep c family called?
of all the hepatitis family group, do any of them attack systems or organs other than the liver?
do the hep b people have their own set of extrahepatic manifestations?
what about the particular liver attack methods for each different type, hep a b and c?
i figured, since animals have been eating each other for so long, and getting bleeding wounds from fighting it would facilitate a lot of transmission. i had guessed wrongly that "animal versions" of hepatitis would be more common in the animal kingdom. all i found was the dog version. it may be hard to know the answer considering testing many animals in the wild would be impracticle. would it be discovered by seeing bad livers in carcasses? i realize now that the zoo veterinarians would know as much as is known about the common wild animals maladies. any experts out there?


hope ive helped yall to forget your side effects for a few minutes. go forth holy crusaders.
