This condition causes inflammation of the liver and is primarily transmitted through the fecal-oral route, often involving the ingestion of contaminated food or water. It is characterized as an acute, self-limited disease that does not result in chronic infection. Symptoms may include fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain, and jaundice. Vaccination is the most effective method for prevention, and most people recover fully with lifelong immunity.
