Summary
Human hepatitis viruses are divided into A, B, C, D, E, and heptic viruses. Hepatitis a virus is spherical, unenveloped, and nucleic acids are single-stranded RNA. Hepatitis b virus is spherical in shape, with a double-layer shell structure, the outer layer is quite the envelope of ordinary viruses, and the nucleic acid is double-stranded DNA. Except for hepatitis b virus, whose genetic material is double-stranded DNA, all other types of viruses are single-stranded RNA. With the exception of A and E, which are intestinal infections, all other types of viruses are transmitted through close contact, blood, and injection.
