How is HBV typically transmitted?

What will be an ideal response?

The HBV virus is transmitted through contact with infected blood or body fluids. Activities that promote transmission include sexual contact, IV drug use, infants born to infected mothers, needle sticks in health care environments, contact with blood or open sores of an infected person, or sharing personal items such as razors or toothbrushes. Only about one-half of those persons infected will show any symptoms with acute disease such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark urine and discolorization of the skin and eyes (jaundice).
