L'hépatite est causée par le virus de l'hépatite D et se transmet comme l'hépatite B. En fait, il faut déjà être infecté par le virus de l'hépatite B pour contracter l'hépatite D. La maladie entraîne une détérioration hépatique grave et présente un taux de mortalité plus élevé que l'infection par le virus de l'hépatite B seul. 2, record 1, French, - h%C3%A9patite%20D

[The] mortality rate estimates are based on the number of deaths relative to the number of confirmed cases of infection, which is not representative of the actual death rate ... Notably, the full denominator remains unknown because asymptomatic cases or patients with very mild symptoms might not be tested and will not be identified. Such cases therefore cannot be included in the estimation of actual mortality rates ... 5, record 2, English, - actual%20mortality%20rate

Les Français [...] ont une espérance de vie à la naissance de 78 ans. Cependant, malgré ces bons résultats, on constate que certains meurent trop jeunes. La mortalité prématurée en France est importante(il s’agit du taux de mortalité spécifique rapporté à la part de la population dont l'âge est inférieur à 65 ans). Ce taux est paradoxalement un des plus élevé d’Europe. Ceci s’explique en partie par la fréquence des maladies liées aux habitudes de vie et aux comportements individuels à risques : tabac, alcool, accidents de circulation, sida, suicides… et par la faible place accordée à la prévention dans les politiques de santé. 2, record 4, French, - maladie%20li%C3%A9e%20au%20mode%20de%20vie

Agents in category A have the greatest potential for adverse public health impact with mass casualties, and most require broad-based public health preparedness efforts (e.g., improved surveillance and laboratory diagnosis and stockpiling of specific medications). Category A agents also have a moderate to high potential for large-scale dissemination or a heightened general public awareness that could cause mass public fear and civil disruption. 1, record 5, English, - category%20A%20agent
