Hepatitis B transmission

[Guptatux2]

Hi guyss,
I have just recently been through a lot of stress in my life with blood-bourne pathogens and I just think that I need to know other's opinion's.

Is it possible to get hep b or c from unchlorinated swimming pool water while swimming with people who are infected with hepatitis b and I had a small shaving cut from the morning (5-6 hours ago). and these people possibly had cuts aswell.

If someone who was bleeding touched their wounds with their hands and then touch a doorknob or someone else's laptop could the person who touches the laptop get hep b or c if they touch the certain area and then touch their eye without washing their hands?

Hi stef, as a kid I got 3 hepatitis b vaccines but when I took the test I tested negative for the Hepatitis B antibodies, I went back to my doctor and he gave me the booster shot. Is this sufficient enough to make me immune to hepatitis b or should I get tested for antibodies again?

just get hbv vaccine and forgot about hbv

if you are not a drug user and so you have a normal immune system, hbv is less dangerous than a flu

it is only at birth that hbv gets chronic, all adults clear hbv with no damage

testing is useless, you dont get hbv that way but you better get hbv vaccine so you dont have to worry about it in the future

Also another question about Hepatitis B testing in some websites it says its 6 month window but with HBsAg surface antigen testing when would this become reliable?

and the wound from above was bleeding, and also if the person had a wound on his hand and touched their laptop.
