Transmission of Hepatitis E Virus.

Transmission of hepatitis E virus (HEV) occurs predominantly by the fecal-oral route. Large epidemics of hepatitis E in the developing countries of Asia and Africa are waterborne and spread through contaminated drinking water.

HEV transmission through blood and vertical transmission have also been reported.
