In concrete terms, hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can trigger chronic degenerative diseases such as cirrhosis or liver cancer.
The hepatitis virus is the most common cause of this disease, but it can also be triggered by other infections or toxic substances, such as alcohol, as well as autoimmune diseases.
Viral hepatitis may not present symptoms, which represents a serious problem, since millions of people live without knowing that they are carriers of the virus, limiting the possibility of reducing deaths caused by this disease.
