I’ve had my hepatitis B-5 checked and would like to know what it is now?

  Patient: Asymptomatic I would like to know if this condition is in the range of hepatitis B or a carrier of the virus. Do I need further testing or what should I look for? Can I get vaccinated? Thank you. Laboratory and test results: Of the five hepatitis B tests, the hepatitis B core antibody is positive + and the other four are negative. Last hospital visit: The results of laboratory tests at our hospital on the 23rd of this month. Would like to know more about what it belongs to.  Tianjin Infectious Diseases Hospital, Department of Liver Diseases, Zhao Guiming: In your case, you should check the liver function, if it is normal and there are no colds and other chronic diseases, you can take the hepatitis B vaccine. This situation does not belong to hepatitis B, nor does it belong to the virus carrier. The HBsAb test should be repeated one month after the hepatitis B vaccination, if it is positive, it is OK, that is, it has the ability to prevent hepatitis B. If it is negative, you should get another (20 micrograms) of hepatitis B vaccine and retest again in one month.
