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 HBeAg in whole blood/serum/plasma is an indication of an active hepatitis b infection.
