Hepatitis B is a serious disease caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV).
Infection with this virus can cause scarring of the liver, liver
failure, liver cancer, and even death. You can even have hepatitis B and
not know it! You won't have symptoms at all. Even if you do, they can
make you feel like you have the flu. But as long as you have the virus,
you can spread it to others. A mother who has the virus can pass it to
her baby during delivery. Hence medical experts recommend that all
pregnant women get tested for hepatitis B.
Hepatitis B is spread through contact with the blood and body fluids of
an infected person. It is spread by infected blood
and other bodily fluids such as semen, vaginal secretions, and open
sores. Just like Ebola, HIV. Do you know your Hepatitis B status, guys?
Have you ever dealt with someone who tested positive to Hepatitis B
before? How did it go? Were there foods he/she avoided during treatment,
food supplements he/she took? Can Hepatitis B be cured? I really hope
everyone will join this discussion and we would all be sincere in our
answers.
