Hepatitis C is a single strand RNA virus and its transmission is similar with HBV.

Unlike the
hepatitis B virus, more than half of people with the hepatitis C virus develop chronic infection.
Hepatitis C causes liver failure, cirrhosis, and liver cancer. Hepatitis C is a common reason for
liver transplants. There’s no vaccine.

Hepatitis D (HDV) or the delta form is similar to HBV in transmission, although it apparently
requires a coexisting HBV infection to be activated. Disease symptoms are mild, but there is a
high incidence of fulminant hepatitis after the initial infection.
Only people who already have hepatitis B can get hepatitis D. People can get hepatitis B and D
at the same time (called co-infection). Or they can get hepatitis D after first getting hepatitis B
(called superinfection)
Hepatitis D makes hepatitis B worse. People with hepatitis B and D get cirrhosis, liver failure,
and cancer earlier than if they only had hepatitis B. There’s no treatment.
There is no vaccine for hepatitis D. But if you are immune to hepatitis B then you can’t get
hepatitis D. Get the hepatitis B vaccine to protect yourself against hepatitis D.
