When you first get exposed to Hepatitis B, it's called "accute". If the infection persists for more than 6 months, that's a "chronic" infection. However, some people are able to clear the infection within those first 6 months and develop immunity. So if they get exposed to Hep B in the future, they won't catch it again.

The goal of treatment is to get the infection to a dormant, inactive state, not to "cure it".
