Can you be infected if biten by a person with Hepatitis C?


Can you be infected if biten by a person with Hepatitis C?

Yes you can
YES AND PPL BITES ARE WORSE THAN ANIMAL BITES! U CAN GET A WICKED INFECTION!
possible but not likely. 3 chances in 10 if stuck with a needle used by a hep c case.
yes
If the bite punctured the skin then you can. Hep C is a virus transmitted by infected body fluids so saliva from the person doing the biting would need to enter your blood stream.

If this is what's happened then seek medical treatment. There is no vaccine to prevent hep C but there are treatments.
No, it can not be transmitted through a bite. Unless, of course, the biter's mouth was bleeding and his/her blood somehow enterred your system. Hope that helps...
Yes....see your doctor asap.
