I just found a friend of mine has hepatitis b what are my risks if i go see him ? can i get it from a hanshake |
or if he uses my bathroom? or should i wait till he gets better? I'm sorry your friend is ill. You can go visit and shake his hand. HepB is transmitted through blood and body fluids. I would hope that you already have a HepB vaccine, but if not, please use this sad event to spur you into motion to get them. Be sure that you get both shots for full immunity! Here is a great link about HepB: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/hepatitis_b... hepatitis B can be acquired through blood and body fluids.. You cant get it through a handshake..you can get it through sex, blood transfusion, kissing with an open wound in the mouth..its ok if he uses the bathroom, just disinfect or clean it well right after use. main concern is blood and body fluid contact. He wont get better, hepatitis B is incurable and the end stage of this is liver cancer. He has to take prescribed antibiotics to just let him feel better but not completely well. i am a nurse not from a hand shake |
