How many main kinds of hepatitis are there?

My colleague recently had hepatitis and it got me thinking about the different types. I always thought hepatitis was just one disease. Does anyone know how many main kinds of hepatitis there are?

Don't panic! There are five main types of viral hepatitis: A, B, C, D, and E. I remember panicking once thinking I might have something, but it turned out to be nothing. Knowing the facts helps, and many are preventable too.

Yaar, actually five main kinds hote hain - A, B, C, D, E. My uncle had Hepatitis B and it was quite serious, so awareness and timely checkups are really important. Don't ignore symptoms, okay?
