What is hepatitis B?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I've been having high fever that won't go down. The hospital said it's a viral infection. What kind of infectious disease did I get? What is hepatitis B?

Doctor's answer:

Hepatitis B is a contagious disease that is primarily spread through three routes: blood, body fluids, and mother-to-child transmission. This disease cannot be implemented for certain training positions, such as chefs, pastry chefs, and others. Additionally, if a patient is diagnosed with hepatitis B, they should seek proper medical treatment at a hospital as soon as possible. If liver function abnormalities are present, liver-protective treatment should be provided. If viral replication is detected, antiviral medications should be used. Otherwise, the patient may progress to liver cirrhosis or even liver cancer.
