Reading hepatitis rapid test results
- A reactive HBsAg test shows hepatitis B surface antigen in the blood and needs clinical follow-up.
- A reactive HCV antibody test shows past or current infection. WHO guidance says a test for HCV RNA confirms current infection.
- People vaccinated against hepatitis B test negative on HBsAg, because the vaccine does not produce surface antigen in the blood.
