Can I get infected by sharing utensils with someone who has hepatitis B surface antigen positive?

Patient's question:

My younger sister has hepatitis B with a high viral load. To avoid putting her under mental stress, our whole family eats dinner together, sharing utensils, and we don't separate our dishes.
Hello, would sharing utensils with her potentially lead to an infection with hepatitis B with a high viral load?

Doctor's answer:

You should believe that eating dinner will infect you, that it is gender discrimination against your own relatives. It is recommended that you pay attention to the "Hepatitis B Eradication Campaign," where a Hepatitis B girl travels across the country asking people to eat dinner, just to prove that Hepatitis B will never be transmitted through sharing meals. Your family will not be infected if they are vaccinated against Hepatitis B. Hepatitis B patients need care, and what they need is not gender discrimination!
In addition, during the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (), in addition to timely treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet while always keeping a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference in the complete recovery from chronic hepatitis B.
