Hepatitis B

Hepatitis B is a liver infection that is either acute (lasts less than 6 months) or chronic (lasting). Passed from person to person through bodily fluids, hepatitis B is a serious infection, causing symptoms like jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), fever, nausea, fatigue and more. Chronic hepatitis B increases risk for liver cancer, liver failure, and cirrhosis (scarring of the liver).

Hepatitis C

Hepatitis C is a virus that causes liver inflammation, passed through exposure to blood from an infected person. Symptoms, including jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), fatigue, and stomach pain, may not be present and the infection may remain undetected. Years after the infection has caused permanent liver damage, symptoms might include bleeding easily, confusion, leg swelling, and more.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are passed from person to person through sexual contact. Often there are no symptoms, so an infected person may not know they are putting others at risk for an STD. Examples of STDs include bacterial infections like gonorrhea and syphilis and viral infections like HPV (human papillomavirus) and HIV.

Tuberculosis

Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious bacterial infection that mainly affects the lungs. The bacteria spread from person to person via sneezing and cough. It is highly contagious. Most TB infections are latent (no symptoms), with about 1 in 10 having an active infection and symptoms including cough, exhaustion, and more. Both latent and active TB is treatable with antibiotics, but can be fatal if left untreated.
