Hepatitis B adalah infeksi hati serius yang paling sering terjadi di dunia. Penyebabnya adalah virus hepatitis B (HBV) yang menyerang sel hati dan dapat menyebabkan sirosis (jaringan parut), gagal hati, atau kanker hati. Sebagian besar orang dewasa yang sehat dan terinfeksi dapat melawan infeksi ini dan membersihkan virus dari darah mereka. Ini dapat membutuhkan waktu hingga 6 bulan dan penularan dapat terjadi selama masa ini. Sayangnya, bayi dan anak kecil berisiko terbesar terkena infeksi kronis (seumur hidup) jika mereka terjangkit HBV.
Ang Hepatitis B ay ang pinaka-karaniwang malubhang impeksiyon sa atay sa mundo. Ito ay sanhi ng hepatitis B virus (HBV), na umaatake sa mga selula ng atay at maaaring humantong sa cirrhosis (pagkapeklat), pagkasira sa atay, o kanser sa atay. Karamihan sa mga malulusog na tao na nahawaan bilang mga nasa hustong gulang ay kayang labanan ang impeksyon at alisin ang virus mula sa kanilang dugo. Maaaring tumagal ito ng hanggang 6 na buwan, at nakakahawa sila sa panahong ito.
