Hepatitis B virus is found in the blood, semen, vaginal fluid and, to a lesser extent, saliva of an infected person. Anyone with the hepatitis B virus in their body can pass it on to others through sexual relations, or by their blood or bodily fluids mixing with another person's blood. A mother can also pass it on to her newborn during childbirth. Hepatitis B is not spread through casual contact, such as hugging, sneezing, coughing, or by sharing food, water, dishes or cutlery. Saliva is rarely a source infection.
Love can be blind.
So can hepatitis B. With Hepatitis B, about half the people who have it never feel sick and can spread the disease without knowing it. There are about 300 million hepatitis carriers around the world. We all need love. At present there is no proven drug to treat hepatitis B, but there are ways to protect yourself. The best way to decrease your risk of contracting hepatitis B is to abstain from sex or reduce the number of sexual partners.
