Ngemuva kwekusuleleka kanye umuntfu utawuchubeka asuleleke imphilo yakhe yonkhe.[5] Kuhlolwa kwalesifo kudzinga kutsi uhlolwe ingati njengoba letimphawu tiyafana naleto letinyenti taletinye tifo.[2] Ngusinye saletisihlanu yemagciwane latiwako ehepatitis: A, B, C, D, na E.

Umjovo wehepatitis A uyasebenta kute uvikele.[2][6] Lamanye emave ayawuncoma kutsi usetjentiswe njalo kubantfwana nalabo labasengotini kakhulu lebangakaze bagonywe.[2][7] Kubonakala ngatsi usebenta imphilo yakho yonkhe.[2] Letinye tindlela tekuvikela tifaka ekhatsi kugeza tandla nekupheka kahle kudla. Akukho kulashwa lokubekiwe, ngako konkhe nemitsi yekuvimbela kunyakuleka noma kusheka iyanconywa kutsi isetjentiswe njalo nayidzingeka.[2] Kusuleleka kuvamise kusonjululwa ngalokuphelele nangaphandle kwesifo sesibindzi lesichubekako.[2] Kwelashwa kwekungasasebenti kakhulu kwesibindzi, uma kwenteka, kutsi ufakelwe lesinye sibindzi.[2]

Mhlabawonkhe labalinganiselwa kutigidzi letingu-1.5 labanetimphawu baba khona njalo ngemnyaka[2] kantsi kuba khona kusuleleka kwetigidzi letilishumi sekukonkhe.[8] Kujwayelekile etigodzini tasemhlabeni letingenakutfutsa kwendle lokukahle nemanti lanele nalahlantekile.[7] Emhlabeni losatfutfuka bantfwana labalinganiselwa ku-90% bayasuleleka nabaneminyaka leli-10 kantsi babese ababi sengotini yekusuleleka nasebabadzala.[7] Kuvamise kwenteka lapho kubhebhetseke khona emaveni langakatfutfuki kakhulu lapho khona bantfwana abangenwa tifo ngalesikhatsi basebancane nekutsi akubi khona kugonywa lokusatjalaliswako.[7] Nga-2010, ihepatitis A leyingoti ibangele kufa lokulinganiselwa ku-102,000.[9] Lusuku LweHepatitis Mhlabawonkhe luba khona njalo ngemnyaka ngenyanga yaKholwane ngamhla ti-28 kute kwecwayiswe ngeligciwane lehepatitis.[7]
