Yesterday, the Ministry of Health interpreted and answered questions on relevant policies and issues of concern to netizens.
A few days ago, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education and Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security jointly issued the Notice on Further Standardizing the Physical Examination Items for Admission and Employment and Safeguarding the Rights and Interests of HBsAg Carriers in Admission and Employment. Yesterday, the Ministry of Health interpreted and answered questions on relevant policies and issues of concern to netizens. Among them, it is clear that canceling the detection of hepatitis B infection markers in admission and employment physical examination will not cause the spread and prevalence of hepatitis B, and hepatitis B virus will not spread through joint study and work contact.
According to reports, both hepatitis B patients and hepatitis B surface antigen carriers are positive for detecting hepatitis B surface antigen, but the difference between them is that the former has clinical symptoms and signs, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is abnormal, while the latter has normal transaminase and no clinical symptoms and signs.
Hepatitis B surface antigen carriers are not hepatitis B patients, with normal liver function and no clinical symptoms, and will not spread to the surrounding people because of living, contacting, studying and working together. Therefore, canceling the detection of hepatitis B infection markers in the physical examination of enrollment and employment will not cause the spread and prevalence of hepatitis B. Starting from the principle of early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment, patients with hepatitis B should actively cooperate with the treatment, and continue to study and work after the clinical symptoms disappear and transaminase returns to normal.
According to the relevant provisions of the Labor Contract Law, if a worker is diagnosed with hepatitis B, the employer shall not terminate the labor contract within the prescribed medical treatment period, and if he can't engage in the original job after the medical treatment period, the employer has the responsibility to arrange another job for him.
At the same time, the Ministry of Health pointed out that because hepatitis B patients, like other hepatitis patients, have abnormal serum transaminase, and there are serum transaminase tests in the entrance and employment physical examination items, they will not miss the detection of hepatitis B patients. Clinically diagnosed patients with hepatitis B should actively cooperate with the treatment.
