hbv is not like hiv or other illness without vaccine, it is nonsense to check for it both because you can make vaccine immediately and both because when the virus enters your body infection doesn t start, the virus needs to reach the liver and start infection, only after this you will have the virus in the blood and body not before.

the time for the virus to reach the liver and start infection can be from as little as 2 weeks to 6 months, so you can understand this test is nonsense.

on the contrary you have to make vaccine and check for the protective antibody hbsab titer, once it is positive you cannot get illness even if the virus is already somewhere in your body but could not start infection yet

so make vaccine immediately, you can also make immune globulins to delay any possibility of the virus to start the infection
