Hepatitis B virus carriers go abroad to study.

Persons who have been approved to work, study or settle abroad for more than one year must apply for the International Travel Health Certificate and the International Vaccination Certificate (referred to as the "Yellow Book") at the designated health and quarantine organ or hospital. However, different countries have different physical examination requirements for student visas, and studying in the UK does not require a physical examination. Australia/Canada/New Zealand apply for a student visa to go to a designated hospital for medical examination. Studying in the United States is different according to the different requirements of the school. The purpose of physical examination of applicants in designated hospitals in various countries is to ensure that applicants will not cause harm to public health; The applicant will not become a burden to medical service institutions; Suitable for beginners.

An expert in liver disease in Hunan Armed Police Corps Hospital said that whether hepatitis B virus carriers can go abroad should be judged according to the results of five indicators of hepatitis B, namely HBsAg, HBsAb, HBcAb, HBeAg and HBeAb.

1, HBsAg positive, the other four indicators are negative. This situation is normal, issue a health certificate.

2, hepatitis B surface antigen positive, but small three positive, that is, the first, fourth and fifth indicators are positive, and the liver function is normal. This situation is normal, issue a health certificate.

3, hepatitis B surface antigen is positive, but it is a big three yang, that is, the first, third and fourth indicators are positive, and the liver function is normal. This situation is actually healthy, but according to the regulations of China's health and quarantine department, no health certificate is issued.

4, hepatitis B surface antigen positive, big three positive, abnormal liver function. This situation is likely to be hepatitis, and it is best to cure the disease before traveling abroad or studying abroad.

An expert on liver disease in Hunan Armed Police Corps Hospital said that the above-mentioned situations of 1, 2 and 3 did not affect the exit, and the health certificate was not checked when entering Australia. In the third case, it doesn't matter if there is no health certificate. You can leave the country in the form of "International Traveler's Physical Examination Record", which is generally no problem!

Liver disease experts remind: try to do hepatitis B check. Those who are positive for hepatitis B surface antigen in physical examination must do five indicators of hepatitis B again. Therefore, it is suggested that if you already know that you are a HBsAg positive friend before the physical examination, it is best to tell the doctor during the physical examination, so that you can do five hepatitis B items at the same time. In case the physical examination results come out a week later and it is time to do it again, which will delay another week.

Professor Du of shenyang military area command Center for Disease Control and Liver Disease Diagnosis and Treatment replied: Although the physical examination required by the embassy includes liver examination, it does not affect the visa of hepatitis B patients. As long as their liver function is normal, they are treated like normal people abroad. And some countries treat patients with hepatitis B equally.
