                2. tests
                  1. serum transaminases rises 3w after exposure
                    1. IgM rises from day 25; IgG remains dectable for life
                    2. management
                      1. prevention
                        1. passive immunisation
                          1. human IgG (up to 3mo immun for those at risk (travellers, household contacts)
                          2. active immunisation
                            1. 1 year immunisation; extended to 10y after 6mo booster
                          3. treatment
