My wife is pregenent and she is carring 6 month baby , her lab result is hbsag positive .sample value 2.875 and cutoff .131 , are they both in danger?

Follow up is vital.: With those lab tests, there would be an increased risk of passing hepatitis b to the baby at birth. Using the Hepatitis B Vaccine and hepatitis b immune globulin, this risk can be greatly decreased. It is very important that your wife's doctors are aware of the hepatitis b results.
