Hepatitis B is a viral infection caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), which is a serious public health problem worldwide. It mainly affects the liver and can lead to liver failure, cirrhosis, and even cancer. The virus is spread by contact with infectious body fluids, such as blood and semen, as well as through unsterilized tattooing or piercing equipment, contaminated needles, and sexual contact. Vaccination against the virus is available and recommended to protect against infection. Early diagnosis and treatment can help to prevent complications and reduce the risk of long-term health issues.
