Non-active carrier of hepatitis B surface antigen gives birth to a child

Patient's question:

Does a child get infected with the virus after being born to a non-activity hepatitis B surface antigen carrier? Does a child get infected with the virus after being born to a non-activity hepatitis B surface antigen carrier?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, friend, your situation is very minor, don't worry. If you get the hepatitis B immune globulin promptly within 24 hours of the baby's birth and follow the 016 schedule for hepatitis B vaccination, it can effectively prevent transmission to the baby. Wishing you good health!
