Hepatitis B is NOT transmitted through saliva. The virus is transmitted in 1 of 3 ways
1. At birth, it can be passed from an infected mother to her baby
2. Direct contact with infected blood (needle sticks, blood transfusions, wound to wound contact, etc)
3. Unprotected sex
Most of the children get exposed to hepatitis A virus due to not so good sanitation. Only few of them get hepatitis and rest get sub-clinical infection. Most of them get recovered and get immunity to the infection. Even to day also most of the rural Indian population takes treatment from the unqualified doctors. They get the hepatitis B infection from them. Most of the children recover from the infection and get immunity against the hepatitis B virus infection. Same is true for other strains of the hepatitis viruses.
Hepatitis B is a viral infection that affects the liver and can lead to both acute and chronic diseases. It is transmitted through contact with infectious body fluids, such as blood, semen, and vaginal secretions. Vaccination is available and is highly effective in preventing the infection. Chronic hepatitis B can increase the risk of liver cirrhosis and liver cancer if left untreated.
