Mnemonic : PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED FELLOW DIED CYCLING .
CREATOR : MYSELF .
Explanation : this mnemonic helps you to remember the families to which the hepatitis viruses A , B , C, D , E belong . this is important because it is asked in many medical post graduation entrance examinations .
Lets see the actual subject
HEPATITIS A : picorna virus -------- physically
HEPATITIS B : hepadna virus -------- handicapped
HEPATITIS C : flavi virus -------- fellow
HEPATITIS D : defective virus ------- died
HEPATITIS E : calci virus --------- cycling
one point worth remembering is that the only DNA virus among all hepatitis viruses is the hepatitis B virus.
Do I need to explain anything more . the sentence is just for the sake of the mnemonic and I mean no offence to physically handicapped people out there. Sorry if anybody is hurt.
