One can transmit the Hepatitis B disease only if there is a detectable viral load. Since your viral load was very low, you were technically non-Infectious. Having said that, it is wise to vaccinate your husband, children and anyone else at home with Hepatitis B vaccine. It is inexpensive and very effective.
