Summary
Hepatitis b is caused by a virus that affects the liver. Adults who get hepatitis b usually recover.However most infants infected at birth become chronic carriers i.e. they carry the virus for many years and can spread the infection to others. The presence of HBsAg in whole blood/serum/plasma is an indication of an active hepatitis b infection.
