Pregnancy with viral hepatitis

Viral hepatitis is an acute intestinal infectious disease caused by hepatitis virus. Infection during pregnancy not only seriously harms pregnant women, but also affects the fetus. The prevention and treatment of this disease is an important subject of perinatal medical research. In recent years, the incidence of hepatitis has been on the rise. According to foreign statistics in 1974, the incidence is 28.1 per 100,000, and it is estimated that it is only 20% of the actual number. The incidence of pregnancy-associated hepatitis varies widely, ranging from 0.025 to 1.6%.
