Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is endemic throughout the world, occurring most commonly in areas of poor hygiene and low socioeconomic conditions. The virus is transmitted primarily by the fecal-oral route and spread by close person-to-person contact and by food and waterborne epidemics. IgM's presence in the patient's serum indicates a recent exposure to HAV.

They rarely persist beyond 12 months after infection.Read more
