Viral hepatitis E (VHE) is considered to be the most common acute viral hepatitis worldwide. Since the 1980s, VHE has been reported in developing countries. Although VHE is not a reportable disease in many developed countries, it is evidently on the rise even in these countries [1].In Europe, VHE is no longer an imported disease and efforts have been made to map VHE cases in both humans and animals to be able to update the recommendations for VHE prevention, risk assessment for blood product and organ transplants recipients, prevention strategies for severe and chronic VHE, and laboratory test algorithms.
