A member asked:
Are hepatitis a and b consider communicable diseases?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Any infection transmitted from person to person is a communicable disease. However, that term often is used to mean infections more easily transmitted. For example, colds and influenza are easily transmitted but viral hepatitis requires more intimate contact.
