Can bloodstains from transmit hepatitis B?

Patient's question:

My boyfriend has hepatitis B (minor positive). Once, while doing laundry, I came into contact with a blood stain on his clothes. Will I get infected?

Doctor's answer:

The infection intensity of is relatively low, and the bloodstains you mentioned may have reappeared on the clothes for some time. However, the hepatitis B virus survives very poorly in the air. Initial advice: it is not contagious, so please rest assured. However, active treatment is necessary to prevent further liver damage and ensure emotional stability. It is hoped that the liver patient will recover soon. In addition to immediate treatment, the patient also needs to pay attention to maintaining a proper diet and ensuring good digestion of nutrients in daily life.
