Discrimination against workers with HBV and HIV

With a population in excess of 120 million, those living with the virus that causes Hepatitis B (HBV) constitute a considerable proportion of China’s population. Yet they still face day-to-day discrimination in employment. Although HBV and HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) can only be spread through the direct exchange of bodily fluids, HBV is widely believed in China to be a contagious disease that can spread through daily contact at school or in the workplace. As such, HBV and HIV carriers are often subject to overly broad regulations and policies that prohibit individuals with “infectious diseases” from industries, jobs or schools, even though their health status would pose no risk to others. Employers routinely screen prospective employees with HBV tests as a condition of employment. According to a 2011 survey of 180 state-owned enterprises, 61 percent of enterprises conduct screening for HBV and 35 percent of the enterprises stated that they would reject job candidates with HBV.

The discrimination against people with HBV probably stems from a fear of Hepatitis A, which can be fatal and is spread much more easily than Hepatitis B, and a lack of public knowledge regarding the distinction between the two Hepatitis viruses. This lack of knowledge is made worse by the flood of scaremongering advertisements for “cures” for and products providing protection from HBV. A similar lack of public education exists regarding HIV: even a Peking University professor has argued that HIV positive individuals should not be teachers since “the immunity of students under 18 may not be strong enough to resist the virus.”  A 2007 study showed that 48.8 percent of the Chinese population and 65 percent of employers surveyed believed that people with HIV do not deserve equal employment rights.

歧视乙肝病毒和艾滋病毒的工人

随着人口超过120万，那些感染了艾滋病毒，导致B型肝炎（HBV）中国人口构成相当大的比例。然而，他们仍然面临着日常的就业歧视。虽然HBV和HIV（艾滋病病毒引起）只能通过直接的体液交换传播，HBV普遍认为在中国是一种传染性疾病，可以在学校或工作场所通过日常接触传播。因此，乙肝病毒和艾滋病毒携带者往往过于宽泛的法规和政策，禁止个人与行业，工作或学校的“传染病”，即使他们的健康状况会造成无风险给别人。雇主通常屏幕的雇员与HBV的测试雇佣的一个条件。根据到2011年的180家国有企业的调查，61％的企业进行筛查HBV，35％的企业表示，他们将拒绝应聘者的HBV。

A型肝炎，这可能是致命的，比乙肝更容易传播，以及缺乏公共知识的区别两者之间的肝炎病毒的恐惧可能源于人与HBV的歧视。这种知识的缺乏变得更加严重的洪水危言耸听广告“治疗”和产品，提供从HBV的保护。缺乏公众教育方面仍然存在着类似的艾滋病毒：即使是北京大学教授认为，艾滋病毒呈阳性的个人不应该是教师，因为“18岁以下学生的免疫力可能不会强大到足以抵抗病毒。”2007年的一项研究结果显示，48.8 ％，中国的人口和65％的雇主认为，艾滋病毒感染者不应该得到平等的就业权利。
