Patient's question:
The unit organized a health check-up, including liver function tests. I was diagnosed with (HBeAg positive), but I don't know where I got infected. My family members don't have this issue. However, the unit still requires a health certificate. I'm worried the hospital won't give me one. Could someone advise if an HBeAg-positive person can obtain a health certificate?Doctor's answer:
To obtain a health certificate, it is essential to have a healthy body to begin with. If you have hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive, the likelihood of getting a health certificate is very low. Doctors will never provide a falsified certificate, as forging is a serious crime. If your profession genuinely requires a health certificate, you should consider how to find a more suitable job. Choosing what kind of work to do should be based on your physical condition.
