The company does not accept hepatitis B patients. First, they are afraid of getting sick at work and they can't be fired. They can also take paid sick leave, so they have a lot of hands and tails. The second is fear of infection. Of course, everyone thinks so, but many factories eat differently. How did they get infected? Or the first is the most important thing for an enterprise. Therefore, some enterprises (a small number) want to do liver function test, and carriers with normal liver function can take up their posts, which is also stipulated by the state and cannot be discriminated against.
There are nearly 100 million hepatitis B virus carriers. As long as their liver function is normal, they can pass the physical examination of most enterprises. So, if you have hepatitis B, don't worry about employment. You should first check whether your liver function is normal. As long as your liver function is normal, there is no problem entering the factory (except for food factories).
Mr Liu is a carrier of hepatitis B virus. When he was looking for a job, he only needed a physical examination, but he was rejected by the company because he was found to have hepatitis B. This can't help but make people think about why the discrimination against hepatitis B in China is so serious. Is this correct?
Correctly understand hepatitis B and eliminate three misunderstandings!
Myth 1: Hepatitis B will spread through diet.
Many people are overly afraid of the "infectivity" of hepatitis B, which leads to prejudice. In fact, more than 50% of hepatitis C is transmitted vertically from mother to child, 30%? 40% is iatrogenic blood transmission (injection, acupuncture, etc. ) and other means of transmission (sexual transmission, close contact).
According to the World Health Organization, hepatitis B virus will not "spread through contaminated food", more than 90% of hepatitis B virus carriers will not get sick, and less than 5% of patients will turn into cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Myth 2: Can't virus carriers get married and have children?
The risk of HBV infection is inversely proportional to age. Newborns and infants are the most susceptible to infection, while adults can be protected by immunization, and the infection rate is only 2%.
Most of the infected people can basically recover through formal treatment in the hospital, their condition is stable, their liver function can also be maintained in a normal state, and they can naturally get married and have children.
Even if parents have hepatitis B and modern medical technology is developed, vaccination can prevent vertical transmission of most newborns.
Myth 3: Liver disease can't be cured, and if you are afraid of drug resistance, you will simply die.
The best treatment for hepatitis B is antiviral therapy, but this treatment is a long process, and many patients often fail because of lack of psychological preparation and treatment interruption.
However, drug resistance has always been a long-standing clinical problem. Not only are patients at a loss, but even some doctors don't seem to realize the seriousness of this problem, which leads to further deterioration of the condition.
However, this does not mean that the treatment is futile. If left untreated, it may lead to liver fibrosis, loss of functional compensation and even the risk of liver cancer. So the damage caused by not treating will only be greater.
