Most adults recover from HBV infection after several months and are no longer contagious. Unfortunately, about 2%-6% of adults who become infected with HBV will carry the virus in their bodies for years and remain infectious. Chronically infected people usually do not have symptoms, but are at increased risk for eventual liver failure (cirrhosis) and liver cancer and need ongoing medical care. There are about 43-45 million carriers in India.
