Newer, so-called combination or fourth generation tests and other lab-based tests are close to 100% accurate. Rapid or at-home tests are right around 99% of the time if you've been infected for a while. But if you were recently exposed, they may not be as trustworthy.

No. If you have been infected with hepatitis b in the past, you can't get infected again. However, some people, especially those infected during early childhood, remain infected for life because they never cleared the virus from their bodies.

Hbsag. If negative, acute hbv infection is ruled out (15). If positive, the patient is infected with hbv. A repeat test after six months will determine if the infection has resolved or is chronic.
