What bloodborne virus is characterized by jaundice, fever, liver enlargement, and abdominal pain?

Hepatitis is the correct answer because it specifically refers to an inflammation of the liver that can be caused by viral infections, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, and E. Symptoms such as jaundice—the yellowing of the skin and eyes—along with fever, liver enlargement (hepatomegaly), and abdominal pain are hallmark signs of hepatitis. These symptoms are indicative of the liver's response to the virus affecting its function and generally arise during the acute phase of the infection.

In contrast, cirrhosis is a condition that results from long-term damage to the liver, often due to chronic hepatitis or alcohol abuse, and leads to scarring and liver dysfunction but does not directly cause an acute presentation of jaundice, fever, and liver enlargement. HIV primarily affects the immune system rather than causing the symptoms associated with liver inflammation, while cholera is an infectious disease caused by bacteria that primarily leads to severe diarrhea and dehydration rather than the liver-related symptoms described.
