Can you get Hepatitis through salivia??

The Facts about Hepatitis C and B

The virus is transmitted through direct blood contact. In the past, transmission most commonly occurred through blood transfusions or blood products. Routine blood screening introduced in 1992 has made this extremely rare in the developed world, but many developing countries continue to use unscreened blood and blood products.

Hepatitis A and B yes but Hepatitis C is generally considered to be blood borne only.

See the information below from the sites listed.

"Hepatitis A (HAV) is transmitted through oral-fecal contact.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a considerable health problem worldwide and a significant cause of liver disease and liver cancer in humans. HBV is readily transmitted via parenteral (sharing needles or a blood transfusion) and sexual routes, and as such, it commonly found in individuals who are coinfected with HIV. All blood and body fluids are considered to be potentially infectious. In infected patients, HBV particles have been found in saliva, semen and cervical secretions. Common modes of transmission include: accidental puncture of the skin with an infected needle, blood splashed in the eye or sharing of un-sterilized needles. Other modes include exposure to instruments while receiving tattoos, ear piercing or acupuncture as well as sharing razors or toothbrushes. It is believed that insects may also serve as vectors by either biting or contaminating food.

Hepatitis C (HCV)

HCV is spread mainly through contact with the blood of an infected person.

It can be passed on through:

Injecting drugs or sharing injecting gear

Tattooing, ear piercing, body piercing (these may be a risk if equipment is not properly sterilised)

Infection of cuts and scratches directly from an infected person’s cuts and scratches – this is rare

Sexual intercourse – this is rare."
