Will you get Hepatitis B again if you have HBSab

I recieved a vaccine years ago and My HBSAB was positive with a value more than 80. Could I get Hepatitis B if I contacted the virus? There is information said it could get infected again if it was a different strain.

I red that if you have HBsAg you may be infected with another genotype, not sure about mutants etc ..
Not possible if you have HBsAb as I know.

Thanks very much. Just one question, have you heared that a different strain or the mutant virus could get one infected although he has antibodies against HBV?
