Can you get hepatitis A from a toilet seat?

Let's stay somebody did their business - but left some feces on the toilet seat. And you sat down and did your business, and their feckel matter was on your bum or hands - and the feces had hepatitis A and you ate some food afterwords with your hands. Can you get it that way?

Yep. Hep A is spread enterically meaning oral-fecal route and the way you described would be a mode of transmission. Thats why it is really important to wash your hands!:)
