Hepatitis
- HAV (Hepatitis A Virus) is spread primarily by unsanitary food and water
- HBV is transmitted in bodily fluids and can cause chronic liver disease
- HCV is perhaps the most dangerous: no vaccine is available
- HDV occurs only in the presence of HBV
- HEV is relatively mild and non-chronic
- HFV and HGV are newly identified; their connection with liver disease is debated
Children, parents and educators will enjoy using these educational
plush toys to teach about hygiene, disease and the human body. Each
microbe comes with a description of the disease it causes or function it
performs. Use these fun, non-threatening toys to emphasize the
importance of washing hands and preventing sickness in social settings.
