Hepatitis A along with jaundice, can be prevented through basic safety measures.
1. Get Vaccinated
2. Drink and Eat Safely
Use boiled or bottled water, when your local water source lacks safety guarantees.
3. Practice Good Hygiene
Hand washing with soap must be performed after using the toilet, and before cooking and before meals.
Teach children to wash their hands, especially if someone at home is sick.
4. Avoid Risky Contact
Share food, drinks or utensils only with people who do not have illness.
