It's a beautiful day and you're outside enjoying the fresh air. You feel a small prick on your arm and notice that a mosquito is getting a free meal. Without realizing, you kill it with a quick slap of your hand, but notice a little blood on your arm where the mosquito was. Along with the nuisance of a mosquito bite, you might be worried about possible infections you can catch, including hepatitis.
It's intuitive to think that when a mosquito bites someone infected and then bites another person, the second person could be exposed to viral hepatitis. Fortunately, viral hepatitis isn't spread from mosquitoes.
