Hi, I need advise from someone out here, please. try not to pay to consult docs yet..if someone out here able to share knowledge

We are hesitate to pursue to hire the new myammar maid due to the following hepatitis result. Please clarify if she is a carrier of Hepatitis B as we are fearful of getting infected by her, in the course of work like a bleeding finger cut, mucous or saliva, etc. This maid is required to multi task incl cooking for whole family besides childcare.
Is she a hepatitis carrier? If yes, we will rather wait and reselect another maid.
Will she infect us?
Does she need more test to confirm if she is infected or a carrier of Hepatitis B?
Does she require periodic hepatitis blood test and medication if we are to hire her?
What are the unwell signs to look out for if she works with us, having this hepatitis knowledge in our mind on her?

Hepatitis A/B Screen
HBs Antigen Negative
HBs Antibody >1000 H mIU/ml Reference Range: Neg (<10) reference
HAV IgG Antibody Positive*
HCV IgG Antibody Negative

Please reply me as unsure to proceed with her work permit application or not due to this hepatitis B that we don't understand. Thanks
 
Thread closed. answer sought from medical prof. apparently these results are ideal as it has immunity to protect n will not infect cos not a carrier.

Better request your potential maid be screen for hep abc then obtain a copy to seek understanding before proceed.
