hepatitis through saliva
Hi Basically almost a year ago i was trying to put a tampon in but i wasn't relaxed enough so i fingered myself first but before that i was handling coins and i didn't wash my hands first and i still haven't got tested for hepatitis and i am really worried i might have caught it and if i did catch It I'm worried that i might of passed it on through my saliva to my friend when i back washed into my drink and she drank it. is this a possible way of passing hep B?
ok thank you I have paranoia so I've not been able to get this off my mind for weeks so thank you for answering also say you have gotten over hep b if you took a test would it tell you you've gotten over it ?
no very difficult, you needed blood in your hand and put blood in the glass and then there should be open wounds in the mouth of your friend....not zero risk but close
the baby is the only one that can get hbv chronic but today hbv vaccine is common in many countries maybe the baby had vaccine

Thank you so its not passed through saliva? because my friend has a child of about 18 months old and I'm petrified that she's possibly been infected
no plus all adults clear hbv by immune system (only 2.8% fail)
chronic transmission is at birth when there is no developed immune system or very young
