Question
Will a child’s father with Hepatitis B virus carryover infect a one-year-old?
Answer
Whether a Hepatitis B virus carrier will infect a one-year-old primarily depends on factors such as the viral load and modes of transmission. If the father has Hepatitis B the triple therapy and a high viral load, there is a risk of transmission through close contact. Preventive measures include vaccination against Hepatitis B, avoiding sharing personal items, practicing safe eating habits, and maintaining good personal hygiene.
