Patient's question:
My husband's younger brother has hepatitis B (minor positive). We often have dinner together on weekends. I got the hepatitis B vaccine five years ago, but it didn't produce antibodies. I don't know if I might get infected.Doctor's answer:
Experts from the Hepatitis Treatment Center of Henan Provincial Public Security Hospital explain: The infectiousness of minor hepatitis B (HBeAg negative) is relatively low, but it still requires careful attention in both homosexual and heterosexual relationships. Sexual transmission is an important route of hepatitis B spread, and this also includes transmission between spouses in families. (5) In tropical regions, insect bites can spread hepatitis B. If you eat dinner together without any ulcers or sores in your mouth, there is no problem! In addition to timely treatment, patients with liver disease also need to maintain a proper diet and ensure adequate nutrient absorption in their daily lives.
