Hepatitis A

Yo! Hepatitis A is my name, making people sick is my game.

I’m just a little virus, that is true, but that don’t keep me from infecting you.

I’m popular in almost every nation, in a very large part of the population.
I’m spread around by poor hygiene, but now I hear they’ve got a vaccine.

I can cause a nasty disease of the liver, the symptoms of which will make you shiver.
Nausea, fatigue, abdominal pain, jaundice, diarrhea, lack of weight gain.

Many people I like to trick, they don’t even know that I made them sick.
The best way to tell if you’ve been infected, is to take some blood and have it tested.

One of the things that I can do, I might make you think you have the flu.
But, once you get well and you’re on the mend, I will never ever make you sick again.

Here’s the truth of the situation, I’m spread by fecal-oral contamination.
So wash those hands and keep ‘em clean it’s the best way to keep me from gettin’ mean.

"I am the infection control nurse for our hospital. This is the first time that I have seen your site, but I have sent it to all my friends who have children. IT IS THE GREATEST!!!!

Keep up the great work. There is a need for this in public, private, home schooling, and specially at the Juvenile Detention Center schools. "
