China to cancel hepatitis B test in enrollment and employment physical examinations

BEIJING, Oct. 11 (Xinhua) -- China is to cancel the serologicaltest of hepatitis B in physical examinations, currently a requirement for students to enter schools or for employees to join new companies, an official from China's Health Ministry has said.

Deng Haihua, deputy director of the general office of the ministry, said Saturday a guidance was being drafted for the cancellation.

Hepatitis B was a blood infectious disease that would not be transmitted in daily lives through air and food, Deng said at a press conference.

"A hepatitis B disease carrier does no harm to others' health and the new practice will not increase the disease transmission," Deng added.

Though the hepatitis B test was to be canceled, the physical examination of liver functions would remain, Deng said.

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
