[According to](http://www.cdc.gov/hepatitis/hav/afaq.htm?ref=foodsafetynews.com) the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Hepatitis A is a contagious liver disease that results from infection with the Hepatitis A virus. It can range in severity from a mild illness lasting a few weeks to a severe illness lasting several months. Hepatitis A is usually spread when a person ingests fecal matter — even in microscopic amounts — from contact with objects, food, or drinks contaminated by the feces, or stool, of an infected person.
