Question
Would a grandmother with Hepatitis B infect her grandchild?
Answer
Hepatitis B is generally transmitted through mother-to-child, blood, and sexual routes. Daily contact does not transmit Hepatitis B. If the Hepatitis B virus is not replicating, its infectivity is extremely low, and there is no need to worry too much. If the virus is replicating, antiviral treatment is required, and it is not recommended to care for children.
