Patient's question:
The child isn't feeling well, always saying they're tired and lack energy. They also feel their face is quite yellow. Well, they went to the hospital for a check-up and were told they are a carrier of the hepatitis B virus. This has troubled us greatly. Will this affect their future college prospects? How can one determine if someone is a hepatitis B carrier?Doctor's answer:
The above-mentioned hepatitis B surface antigen carriers, in addition to being unable to donate blood for free and directly handling ready-to-eat food and childcare work, can continue to work and exercise as usual. With the continuous improvement of China's legal system, the legal rights of hepatitis B virus carriers will be better protected. As comprehensive prevention and treatment technologies for hepatitis B become more widespread, ordinary people in society will have a clearer understanding of the hepatitis B virus.
