A member asked:
My husband has hbv virus and now i discovered that i have hiv .. does this make any sense?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The HBV did not cause you to have hiv. However, he either had HIV as well or you caught it from someone else you were with. Hiv is transmitted person to person. Hiv has no relation to any viral hepatitis except many patients have both.
