Depends on details: If a person's Hep B surface antigen is nonreactive, that means the lab does not find pieces of the surface of the virus. If his Hep B virus PCR is negative, that means the lab does not find the virus's DNA (genes). If the core antibody is reactive that means his immune system REMEMBERS being infected with Hep B. He is "cured" but some viral DNA might be attached to his own human DNA in his liver.
