Abstract

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes sporadic cases in industrialized countries and endemic outbreaks in areas with lower sanitation standards. The wide host reservoir of HEV makes it a potential source of new zoonotic transmission and dissemination in humans. Thus, the perception of HEV as a confined ailment has shifted to one of global concern. Considering HEV’s environmental stability and heterogeneity in the host range of HEV’s genotypes, various transmission pathways and sources for HEV infections are plausible. Here, we provide an overview on HEV’s transmission routes and discuss the role of HEV as a foodborne zoonosis, as well as preventive measures and open research questions.

戊型肝炎病毒的传播方式。

戊型肝炎病毒（HEV）在工业化国家引起散发病例，在卫生标准较低的地区引起地方性暴发。戊型肝炎病毒广泛的宿主宿主使其成为新的人畜共患病传播和传播的潜在来源。因此，认为HEV是一种局限性疾病已转变为全球关注的问题之一。考虑到HEV的环境稳定性和HEV基因型宿主范围的异质性，HEV感染的各种传播途径和来源是合理的。在这里，我们概述了HEV的传播途径，并讨论了HEV作为食源性人畜共患病的作用，以及预防措施和开放的研究问题。

期刊介绍： Current Opinion in Virology (COVIRO) is a systematic review journal that aims to provide specialists with a unique and educational platform to keep up to date with the expanding volume of information published in the field of virology. It publishes 6 issues per year covering the following 11 sections, each of which is reviewed once a year: Emerging viruses: interspecies transmission; Viral immunology; Viral pathogenesis; Preventive and therapeutic vaccines; Antiviral strategies; Virus structure and expression; Animal models for viral diseases; Engineering for viral resistance; Viruses and cancer; Virus vector interactions. There is also a section that changes every year to reflect hot topics in the field.
