two days before coming to the hospital, uncle zhu noticed that something was wrong with him: yellow urine, fatigue, and loss of appetite.two days later, he found that he had become a complete "minion", with the whites of his eyes and skin turning noticeably yellow.

when he was sent to the hospital's infectious disease department, uncle zhu's condition worsened. yang naibin said that uncle zhu had typical symptoms of bile duct obstruction and liver damage. after excluding acute exacerbation of chronic hepatitis b, drug-induced liver damage, and autoimmune liver disease,the doctor considered that mr. zhu was more likely to have acute and severe hepatitis e.

after targeted examinations, it was discovered that uncle zhu was indeed infected with the hepatitis e virus, and the hepatitis e virus load in his blood was as high as tens of thousands, leading to acute liver failure.
