Can we have sex with a wife of a patient who died with hepatitis b virus. pls note that her report is normal for hbv?

Yes: Yes. You can have sex with her but there is some risk she may have HBV (even with negative prior testing). I would recommend using protection and consider retesting her for hepatitis viruses.
