On August 28, 2004, the Standing Committee of the Tenth National People’s Congress amended the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases, which stipulates in Article 16 that no unit or individual shall discriminate against infectious patients, carriers of pathogens or patients suspected of having infectious diseases. This means that there is a legal basis for eliminating discrimination against infectious diseases, including hepatitis B. On January 19, 2005, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Health promulgated the General Standards for Medical Examination for Civil Servants, emphasizing that hepatitis B pathogen carriers are qualified in the medical examination standards. This news caused a huge reaction throughout the country, and the cry of “don’t discriminate against hepatitis B virus carriers” finally got a substantial response. March 18 is the National Liver Day, experts pointed out, “Hepatitis B virus carriers in the medical examination is qualified, this standard should not only be implemented in the civil service population, but should be extended to enterprises, private and other units of various nature. According to relevant surveys, there are about 100 or 200 million hepatitis B virus carriers in China, in fact, most of them are the backbone of society, shouldering significant social and family responsibilities. Most hepatitis B carriers face considerable pressure in terms of further education, employment and interpersonal communication. The three main ways of transmission of hepatitis B are blood or blood products transmission, mother-to-child or father-to-child vertical transmission, and sexual contact. The possibility of contracting hepatitis B in life is very small unless there is close contact or the contact person has special circumstances such as mucous membrane rupture. Except for special occupational requirements such as early childhood education and the catering industry, the work of hepatitis B carriers is not affected or restricted. Behind the phenomenon of “hepatitis B discrimination” are a series of social problems that hinder the harmonious development of society, the lack of popularization of science, the low level of knowledge of the country, and the imperfect legal system, which need people’s high attention.
