U might have taken vaccination for hep b .. thats why u have anti hbs antibody ... but a negative hbsag report is only valid for 6 months if u r working in health care sector. Vaccination is preventive .... if u get a needle stick injury or any exposure .. u will have to do ur antibody titres again to decide on appropriate post exposure prophylaxis
