Hepatitis A is caused by a virus typically caught by close contact with an infected person or by ingesting contaminated food or water. Over 10,000 cases per year are reported in the United States, especially in those 5 to 14 years old. Symptoms can occur 15 to 50 days after someone is exposed to the virus. Younger children frequently have only mild flu-like symptoms, while older children and adults usually become sicker. Common symptoms include nausea, fatigue, stomach pains, diarrhea, and jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes).
