hbe+ vs hbe-

Why hbe + has better chance of clearing hbsag than hbe(-) ?

thats also confusing, from what ive heard recently from couple of doc's they said that if you have hbe (-) then if your virus is not crazy high but steady low then it means its dead and wont come to harm you, also it is possible to eradicate it or at least regress the virus and there might be also a possibility that the virus will die off over time cause it has no replicating capability anymore.

But not sure about that, any thoughts on this?
