The state stipulates that the hepatitis B test item shall be cancelled in the employment physical examination.

The reasons for the cancellation of hepatitis B testing items in employment physical examination stipulated by the state are as follows:

1. Before, patients with hepatitis B were often discriminated against in employment and education. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program can reduce discrimination against hepatitis B patients and protect their equal rights and interests. Medical research has proved that hepatitis B virus is mainly transmitted through blood, mother-to-child and sexual contact, and daily work, study or life contact will not lead to hepatitis B virus transmission. Therefore, there is a scientific basis for canceling the hepatitis B testing program.

2. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program can save medical resources and avoid unnecessary waste. At the same time, it can also reduce the economic burden of patients. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program can promote social equity and let more people have equal employment and education opportunities. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program does not mean giving up hepatitis B prevention and treatment.

3. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program is the embodiment of social progress and the pursuit of fairness, justice and tolerance. This will help to eliminate discrimination and promote the harmonious development of society. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program will help to promote the change of public health concept. With the development of medicine and the improvement of understanding, people pay more attention to the prevention and control of diseases, rather than paying too much attention to the diseases themselves.

4. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program will help promote the progress of medical science and technology. The medical community needs to constantly explore new methods and technologies to better prevent and treat diseases such as hepatitis B. Canceling the hepatitis B testing program can make the medical community pay more attention to the prevention and treatment of hepatitis B and promote the progress of related research and technology.

Transmission route of hepatitis B

Blood transmission is the main route of transmission of hepatitis B in adults, but with the strict management of blood transfusion in China, blood transfusion transmission has been quite rare. At present, blood transmission mainly refers to infection through minor wounds of skin and mucosa, such as tattoos, eyebrows, drug abuse, use of unsterilized medical instruments, razors and dental instruments.

Mother-to-child transmission was once the main route of transmission of hepatitis B virus, but this route was successfully blocked to a great extent after neonatal hepatitis B vaccine immunization in China. Hepatitis B virus will not spread through the respiratory tract and digestive tract, so living, studying and working with hepatitis B virus carriers are bloodless, generally not infected, so don't worry too much.
