China is a large country with hepatitis B. According to the national epidemiological survey in 2008, the rate of hepatitis B surface antigen positivity was 7.18%, which means that there are about 93 million hepatitis B surface antigen carriers in China. Hepatitis B is not only a personal health problem, but also a social problem. Every year, the rights of hepatitis B patients are affected by factors such as employment and schooling, and many patients’ concerns are not due to the hepatitis B virus itself, but to family and social factors. I have made a survey on “Analysis of the psychological situation of 457 cases of chronic hepatitis B and its impact on the prognosis” and found that heavy psychological pressure will in turn affect the recovery of the disease. Sociologists and psychologists in China have also noticed the problems in this area, and the state has also issued relevant regulations aimed at protecting the social rights and interests of hepatitis B patients, one of which is summarized below, in the hope that hepatitis B patients will understand the relevant national policies, protect their rights and interests according to the law, reduce unnecessary worries and anxieties, and make a full physical and mental recovery.

Policy Interpretation and Q&A of the Notice on Further Standardization of Medical Examination Programs for School Admission and Employment to Safeguard the Rights of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen Carriers for School Admission and Employment
I. Policy Interpretation
1, the three departments jointly issued the “on further standardization of medical examination programs for admission and employment to safeguard the rights of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers in school and employment notice” the main background.
A: In recent years, the state attaches great importance to the protection of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers in school, employment rights, “Employment Promotion Law”, “Education Law”, “Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Law” and other laws and relevant laws and regulations have made relevant provisions. 2007, the former Ministry of Labor Security, the Ministry of Health jointly issued “on the protection of the employment rights of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers opinions”, requiring employers in the recruitment, employment In the process of recruiting and employing workers, except for those jobs prohibited by national laws, administrative regulations and the Ministry of Health, the serological index of hepatitis B virus shall not be forced to be used as the standard of medical examination. Through the joint efforts of the government at all levels and the whole society, the environment for enrollment and employment of hepatitis B virus carriers has been improved to a certain extent.
However, at present, there are still many educational institutions and employment agencies that violate the hepatitis B virus serology program during medical examinations for admission and employment, and make the results of the examinations a condition for admission and employment; some regions do not implement the relevant policies and regulations in place, and do not supervise and inspect the non-compliant employment agencies enough, resulting in the phenomenon of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers being restricted from admission and employment, which is strongly reflected by the society. The social reflection is strong.
From November last year, the State Council Legislative Affairs Office, led by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Health, jointly carry out research on relevant policies and measures. The entire research process follows the principle of “open, democratic, scientific”, on the one hand, fully listen to the views of experts, to understand the prevailing international practice, reference to the World Health Organization (WHO), from the perspective of infectious disease prevention and control of the feasibility of eliminating the hepatitis B project testing repeated in-depth demonstration; on the other hand, through public consultation. Extensively listen to and actively absorb the views of all sectors of society, so as to ensure that the policy measures are scientific, rigorous and effective.
2.What are the new requirements and provisions in this document compared with the documents issued by the former Ministry of Labor and Health in 2007?
A: The document is a refinement and strengthening of the 2007 document, focusing on further standardization of medical examination programs for schooling and employment, clarifying the responsibilities of employers, educational institutions and medical and health institutions, strengthening government supervision functions, enhancing law enforcement and inspection, and improving the feasibility and operability of the policy. Compared with the 2007 document, there are several main features as follows.
(1) The scope of rights and interests is broader. While the 2007 document focused on safeguarding the employment rights of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers, this document emphasizes safeguarding the rights of both schooling and employment.
(2) The prohibited items are more comprehensive. The 2007 document requires that the serological indicators of hepatitis B virus shall not be forcibly checked in the employment medical examination; this document clearly requires that no examination involving the markers of hepatitis B virus infection, including the five items of hepatitis B and HBV-DNA testing, shall be conducted in the medical examination for admission and employment.
(3) Special occupations are more clearly defined. At present, the national laws, administrative regulations and the State Council administrative department of health regulations in the work of hepatitis B virus carriers are not prohibited, this time the document provides that the occupations that do need to be checked, one is to emphasize the special, possibly only a very few occupations, the second is to emphasize the strict application review process, the competent industry departments should be submitted to the Ministry of Health research report and written application, approved by the Ministry of Health before the relevant testing. Third, the emphasis on public supervision, approved by the hepatitis B surface antigen carriers are not allowed to engage in occupations, announced by the Ministry of Health to the community. As long as the work is in place, there will be no disguised inspections that will affect the effectiveness of the policy.
(4) supervision and inspection is stronger, one is the supervision and inspection of institutions, this time the document requires the relevant authorities to strengthen the supervision and management of medical and health institutions, educational institutions, and employers, and to investigate and punish those who violate the regulations according to the law; second is the management of staff, this time the document also specifies that the relevant person in charge or responsible for violating the regulations should also be punished accordingly; third is to play the social Supervisory functions, this time the document requires the relevant departments to set up and publish complaints, reporting phone number, to accept complaints and reports from the community.
3. What is the purpose and significance of abolishing the five tests for hepatitis B in medical examinations for admission and employment? How can schools and employers screen hepatitis B patients after the elimination of the five hepatitis B tests?
A: Hepatitis B virus does not spread through common study and work contact. In the past, some organizations tested for markers of hepatitis B virus infection during medical examinations for admission and employment, and restricted the admission and employment of those who were positive, which infringed on their legitimate rights and interests. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of national laws and regulations and the gradual improvement of people’s understanding of the characteristics of hepatitis B virus transmission, the knowledge that general contact does not cause hepatitis B transmission has been accepted by everyone. Therefore, from the perspective of further safeguarding the rights of hepatitis B surface antigen carriers in schooling and employment, the abolition of testing for markers of hepatitis B virus infection in schooling and employment medical examinations is conducive to safeguarding fair schooling and employment rights, maintaining stable social development, building harmonious interpersonal relationships and good social morals, and promoting the construction of spiritual civilization.
Since hepatitis B patients, like other hepatitis patients, have abnormal serum transaminases, there is a serum transaminase test in the medical examination program for school admission and employment, so no hepatitis B patients will be missed. For clinically diagnosed hepatitis B patients, they should actively cooperate with treatment.
4.What measures will be taken next to promote the implementation of the Notice?
A: The next step will mainly take the following measures to promote the implementation of the Notice. First, to carry out publicity, the use of various media and local work platforms at all levels, to carry out the prevention and treatment of hepatitis B knowledge and related policies and regulations to guide the correct understanding and treatment of hepatitis B; second is to clean up and revise the existing regulations, the relevant departments of the State Council will be “public places health management regulations implementation rules”, “general standards of medical examination for civil servants (trial)” as well as enrollment medical examination work related regulations, etc. Revision, local governments at all levels will also clean up the relevant policies, as soon as possible to repeal or revise the documents inconsistent with the provisions of the Notice; Third, the implementation of daily supervision, human resources and social security at all levels, education, health departments will be the employer, educational institutions and medical and health institutions for daily supervision, and urge them to strictly implement the relevant provisions of the state. For violations of the provisions, investigate and punish according to law. At the same time to set up complaints, reporting phone, accepting complaints and reports; Fourth, combined with the relevant policy special supervision and market clean-up and rectification and other special actions to promote the implementation of the policy. Recently, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security has banned employers from carrying out relevant testing as an important element of the 2010 special inspection to clean up and rectify the order of the human resources market has been deployed; fifth is to carry out special inspections, in accordance with the requirements of the Notice, provincial human resources and social security, education and health departments will jointly carry out special inspections in due course.
Second, the netizens concern hot issues
5, what is the transmission route of hepatitis B virus? What is the main method of medical screening of hepatitis B virus carriers?
A: Hepatitis B virus transmission routes include:
(1) blood transmission: blood transmission mainly includes blood and blood products, the use of medical devices not strictly sterilized, syringes, interventional diagnostic and surgical operations, and intravenous drug abuse; other such as pedicures, tattoos, earring holes, accidental exposure of medical personnel at work, the sharing of razors and toothbrushes, as well as broken skin and mucous membrane transmission are classified as blood transmission routes. Data show that the evidence of hepatitis B virus transmission through blood is conclusive.
(2) Mother-to-child transmission: Mother-to-child transmission is an important route of transmission of hepatitis B virus, with about 30%-50% of chronic hepatitis B virus infections being acquired through mother-to-child transmission. Mother-to-child transmission can be divided into intrauterine transmission (relatively rare, with most studies showing <2%), intrapartum transmission, and postpartum infection. The rate of mother-to-child transmission depends mainly on the presence of HBeAg in the mother's blood. 1979 and 1992 seroepidemiological surveys in China both showed that most of the infections in China were due to mother-to-child infection, which is consistent with the infection pattern in high endemic areas of hepatitis B published by WHO and UNICEF.
(3) Sexual transmission: Hepatitis B virus can be detected in the semen or vaginal secretions of hepatitis B-infected individuals, and these bodily fluids can pass through broken mucous membranes and cause infection during close sexual contact. The rate of hepatitis B virus infection among gay men in New York, USA, was 13 times higher than that of the control group, and the rate of infection was proportional to the number of sexual contacts. In a follow-up analysis of spouses of men with chronic hepatitis B virus infection, hepatitis B surface antigen was detected in 20%, 31%, and 42% of the 100 spouses interviewed when tested at years 1, 3, and 5 after marriage, respectively. The epidemiological survey and serological testing of hepatitis B virus infection markers in 200 women with multiple sexual partners showed that the rate of hepatitis B virus infection reached 55.15%, proving that hepatitis B virus can be transmitted through sexual contact.
Daily work or living contact, such as working in the same office (including sharing office supplies such as computers), shaking hands, hugging, living in the same dormitory, eating in the same restaurant and sharing toilets, etc. without blood exposure, will not transmit hepatitis B virus.
The main method of medical screening of hepatitis B virus carriers is through the collection of venous blood from the subject, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELSIA) or other enzyme immunoassay to detect hepatitis B virus surface antigen, but also to carry out HBV-DNA detection screening.
6.What is the difference between hepatitis B patients and hepatitis B surface antigen carriers? Can hepatitis B patients go to school and work?
A: Both hepatitis B patients and hepatitis B surface antigen carriers test positive for hepatitis B surface antigen, but the difference between the two is that the former have clinical signs and symptoms and abnormal alanine aminotransferase (transaminase, ALT), while the latter have normal transaminase and no clinical signs and symptoms. Hepatitis B surface antigen carriers are not hepatitis B patients, have normal liver function, have no clinical symptoms, and do not spread to the surrounding population due to common living contact, common study and work. Therefore, the elimination of hepatitis B infection marker testing in medical examinations for admission and employment will not cause the spread and prevalence of hepatitis B. Starting from the principle of early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment of the disease, hepatitis B patients should actively cooperate with the treatment and can continue to study and work after the clinical symptoms disappear and the transaminases return to normal.
According to the relevant provisions of the Labor Contract Law, if a worker is found to be suffering from hepatitis B, the employer shall not terminate the labor contract during the prescribed medical period, and the employer is responsible for arranging another job for him/her if he/she cannot perform the original job after the medical period.
7. Public consultation on the situation
A: January 21-27, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health through the three departments will be the “Notice” draft for public comment, and set up a special e-mail address to collect the views of Internet users. After the release of the draft for public comment, all walks of life were highly concerned, including hepatitis B surface antigen carriers themselves and their relatives, non-carriers have expressed their views and opinions. During the consultation period, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health received about 17,000 emails from all walks of life (including nearly 7,000 from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, 5,000 from the Ministry of Education and more than 5,000 from the Ministry of Health), excluding emails with the same content sent by the same netizen, the actual number of valid emails received was about 13,000. From the reflection of netizens, more than 99% clearly expressed support for the introduction of the relevant policies, and some netizens also actively offered advice and suggestions on restricting HVB-DNA testing, defining special occupations, protecting the privacy of examinees in medical and health examinations, strengthening publicity and education, and increasing the fight against false advertising of hepatitis B. In this regard, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, in conjunction with the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Education, carefully analyzed and studied, and absorbed the comments and suggestions that were reflected in a concentrated and practical manner into the draft “Notice”.
The introduction of the “Notice” has been the active participation and support of the vast number of Internet users, the community’s wisdom. Here, the Ministry of Human Services, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education to participate in the “Notice” public consultation activities of friends from all walks of life to express their heartfelt thanks.
