Hepatitis can be caused by several causes, the most common of them are viruses and none of them are genetic. However, some hepatitis viruses can be transmitted through the placenta from the mother to the baby, which may have lead you to think that it is a genetic disease.
no it is caused by a virus that is passed from human to human

no. its a disease transmitted by blood and body fluids, it doesnt matter if your grandma has it. you will only get it if you catch it from her. you wont get it because you are related
Hepatitis A,C,D,E are not genetic because usually it is acquired through oral and fecal route while Hepatitis B can be acquired genetically. I know four cases which they acquired hepatitis B from their parents and I'm a laboratory scientist too.
