Yes but . . .: Hepatitis is inflammation of liver. Hep a is food borne so no risk there. However, hep b & c are transmitted by blood so if you had a small, even microscopic break (cut or nick) in your skin, infected blood could potentially get into your system . . . But if hepatitis is non-infectious, say due to drugs like acetaminophen, then you can't catch it. Check out http://www.Cdc.Gov/hepatitis/ for info.
