Option 1 is correct because both Hepatitis B and HIV can be spread through contact with infected blood, semen, or other body fluid. So, they`re typically transmitted through shared needles or unprotected sex.
Option 2 is incorrect, thus the correct answer to this question. Contrary to the statement, there is indeed a vaccine for Hepatitis B. This vaccine is typically given in multiple doses and can prevent the occurrence of Hepatitis B.
Option 3 is true. Globally, more people are infected with Hepatitis B and C than HIV. According to the World Health Organization, an estimated 257 million people are living with Hepatitis B and 71 million with Hepatitis C, while around 38 million people have HIV.
Option 4 is also accurate. Many people infected with Hepatitis B or C may not show symptoms until many years later or when their liver is severely damaged. This can often lead to late diagnoses and more severe health complications.
