摘要
戊型肝炎在许多发展中国家是一重要的公共卫生问题,戊型肝炎病毒是其病原,至少有4个基因型。基因1型和2型仅见于人类,3型呈世界分布,4型见于亚洲。3型与4型均能从人与猪分离到,猪是戊肝病毒的动物贮存宿主,目前被认为是一种动物源性传染病。
Hepatitis E is an important public health problem in many developing countries. Hepatitis E virus （HEV） is the aetiological agent. There are at least four major genotypes of HEV. Genotype 1 and 2 HEVs are found exclusively in humans. Genotype 3 has a worldwide distribution, while genotype 4 has been found only in Asia, both 3 and 4 can be isolated from humans and swine that are animal reservoirs for genotype 3 and 4 HEVs. Hepatitis E is now considered an animal-borne communicable disease （ABCD, Zoonosis）.
