hepatitis B infection

Hi everyone, let me get this straight. When did this Hepa b carrier rule had changed?, last year? before this, could carriers get the visa? and suddenly they changed not to give? Please help me to understand... and if they change the rules again means certain types of hepa b carrier(ex; inactive)will be given visa?

Hi All,

I am Hepatitis B positive but my DNA count is under 3000. PLease suggest if i reduce my DNA count to zero can i come back to Dubai for work.

Also my doctor is ready to write that the virus is inactive in my body and is not causing any harm. Can this be produced as a proof to the medical centre of Dubai to get the work visa.

Regards,
Prattul

being HBV carrier does not mean that the one of us is criminal, pick up the phone and call the preventive medicine department in the Omani ministry of health and ask them directly. Plain and simple. You might want to try the Omani embassy as well.

Addresses should be readily available from the internet.

Can Anyone brief immediately the various types of VISAS in OMAN for employment and whether all VISA need do blood tests for Hepatitis B, I request an urgent reply since I have to reply whether I am ready to take the offer or not. Be kind and give me the maximum details.

POSTED THE SAME IN OMAN FORUM, BUT NO REPLIES, IT IS AN URGENT ONE, KINDLY REPLY. THIS IS FOR OMAN

Thanks Perdanansiswa, kindly update whenever the rules in UAE change and open the gates for HBV carriers. Thanks to you in advance.

Ciccia,

This rule came for implementation in August 2008. Before that, only HIV and Tuberculose tests were there. HBV was not a criteriea to get residence permit or not.

Prattil,

I think they are just checking the presence of HBV in the blood. Once the test is positive, they do not bother by doing further investigations to check the virus is active or not. They will simply say that you are not fit.

Hi Everyone

Why the forum is silent you guys got good news and do want to share? Come on can some one say something.

Henry,

What is the good news?

whatis the good news did u get something gud news?pls update

I went to Dubai last December 2009 in visit visa. After a week I got a good job in Private medical Center in jumerah. My employer canceled my visit visa and converted to residence visa, they told me that I don’t need to exit to my home country while converting my visit visa to residence visa because they have a good PRO who will process everything for me, they paid the immigration and everything for my residence visa. I got my residence visa before my medical but they still holding it because I'm not yet done in my medical. Second week of January 2010 my employer asked me to go in one of the government hospital in Dubai for my medical, After a week the hospital asked me for re-check because they found something in my blood. After the re-checked I got the result after few days. Very frustrating that I had Hepa - b positive resulted and it was indicated on my Medical report " Not fit to work" and my employer explain everything regarding my case including they can't do anything for my medical and they cant keep me so they have to cancel my residence visa. They asked me to sign in few papers to be able for them to cancel my visa; I can’t read those written on that paper because it was in Arabic. After I signed those papers they told me that it was my last day of work and I need to go back home as soon as possible, thy also told me that I was banned in Dubai for 2 years and they asked sorry for that. So I have no more choice than to go back home (Philippines). I hope my stories will help you to decide... More power to us!!!... Never lost hope because God has mercy.

same as to all, i came here in uae in visit visa ang got a good job. My employer then changed my visit visa to employment visa, and had a medical test and later i was told to have a re test for the blood examination here in abu dhabi. I got the result and was told that Im positive of hepa b, after few days i got back to the hospital together with my PRO and there i was taken a picture like a criminal and got finger print. sad to say i was only given 1 week to go back to the philippines. my flight will be this monday  may 24. Am so deppressed right now, im going back to our country without money in my pocket. i have also have to pay the money ive borrowed for the processing of my visit visa.

very sad.that means this rule is going on they have not taken any single action to amend like further checking except hbsag they shud checke dna or hbeag.then why r they publishing in news paper about to amend this law when still this happeniig may god give some wisdom to thesepeople to think, im really tensed.

Hi All its really sad to here you ppl stories, well the prob was that u ppl were new comers and   kamil1358 your job was related medical so they will never accept it there are certain jobs which you can’t do when your infected e.g. medical, food, maid, nurse etc. well my advice to all is this before going for a medical test and getting a ban its better you get your reports from your country and then come to UAE meet few dr. and talk about your case and take the advice  if they say no it’s not possible then just don’t go for a medical test and get yourself banned it’s better to leave the country without a ban. (ppl who know they are infected)
The law to change well everyone is waiting for it including myself so let’s not lose hope and keep praying for each other.

hey, w_ali,clarify me with 'they will never accept it there are certain jobs which you can’t do when your infected e.g. medical, food, maid, nurse etc.'- means other than this job there are still possibilities on getting a residency visa for hep B carrier ?
My case, I am NOT GOING TO WORK...going there just bcuz my hubby is going to work there...will i able to get a visa or no?

I feel so sorry for those who are going tru this including myself. We are not some kinda criminals what so ever...we shouldn't be treated as 'NOT FIT TO WORK'!

I agree that it is better to do medical check-ups before arrival in UAE...otherwise will not even be able to visit in the future.

BTW, where are the ppl who were writing some positive news on this blog?? Are there anybody with some positive news??

The blogs posted here have conflicting details about the duration of the ban post cancellation of visa.
The details range from no problems for visit visa, 6 month ban, 2 year ban and life time ban.
What is actual duration?

i feel dicriminated... but its ok life must go on.. its reality.. Im looking forward for my future to our country philippines. I dont care if i have a life time ban. I dont want to go back here in UAE. My life here is in misery.. The thing is they have diffent law and we are only expats so they can do what ever they want..

If your job comes under this list, medical, cooks, beautician, nurse, maid etc so no matter what they won’t listen to you and put a ban on you and jobs like IT, media, banks etc such jobs also they won’t agree but you can fight for your case and they might give you a visa (also depends how good your pro is)
Well house wives can check the forum there are similar cases, but personally I believe they get visa just need to try a bit.
Ppl coming from Europe and US and if they are healthy carriers try to get a medical letter from any well known hospital back at home saying that your fit and all other useful things, it works at times.

Well talking about the actual duration of a ban it’s not related with years it’s only have to do with your infection even if your banned for 2 years but still infected even after 2 years consider yourself banned and getting a visit visa after being banned mmmmm not sure… @itwizard

The law to change I heard many ppl saying that they got info from higher authorities well I know they are not fooling so many ppl in here, the thing is that it will take time they won’t so easily change a law and when they will change it will b for ppl who are expat living in UAE then slowly they will keep changing it till ppl who are outside UAE can com and work.
Well all what I said is my personal belief. I’m also like you guys who is badly waiting for the law to change and get back in the country.

Thanks THBT for sharing this information. Also i would like to share that i came to Dubai on temporary work visa to join a marketing company and then went for the medical after 20 days to get a proper work visa in Dubai through my company. During the medical they told me that I am Hepatitis B positive and put a permanent ban on my VISA. Please let me know if there is any way wherein i can discuss my case with the authorities in UAE and try to get the Visa as this virus is inactive in my body. Also if the law changes can i get a chance to to come back and work in Dubai.

Hi Everyone

Do you guys see any light here?
Geneva, 22nd May 2010 (WAM) - -- The 63rd World Health Assembly, which brought together Health Ministers and senior health officials from the World Health Organization's (WHO) Member States, concluded business and closed Friday evening.
"You reached agreement on some items that are a real gift to public health, everywhere. Thanks to some all-night efforts, we now have a code of practice on the international recruitment of health personnel," said Dr Margaret Chan, WHO Director-General. " In addition, you have given public health a policy instrument and guidance for tackling one of the world's fastest growing and most alarming health problems. This is the rise of chronic noncommunicable diseases, like cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and chronic respiratory disease." The delegates adopted resolutions on a variety of global heal ic health, innovation and intellectual property: global strategy and plan for action The issue of intellectual property is critical for 4.8 billion people who live in developing countries, more than 40% of them living on less than 2 US dollars a day. Poverty affects their access to health products to fight disease. The debate this year focused on financing issues, including the rational use of funds, and conducting research through regional networks. The global strategy proposes that WHO should play a strategic and central role in the relationship between public health and innovation and intellectual property within its mandate. The strategy was designed to promote new thinking in innovation and access to medicines, which would encourage needs-driven research rather than purely market-driven research. A new consultative working group will examine the way to take this work forward and is expected to report back to the 65th Health Assembly in 2012.
Counterfeit medical products erfeit medical products proposed, and the Health Assembly accepted, that WHO convened an intergovernmental working group, participation in which is to be open to all Member States. This group will examine WHO's: ? role in ensuring availability of good-quality, safe, efficacious and affordable medicines ? relationship with the International Medical Products Anti-Counterfeiting Taskforce (IMPACT) ? role in prevention and control of substandard/spurious/falsely-labelled/falsified/counterfeit medical products.
The proposal emphasized that the group should restrict itself to public health issues only. Intellectual property or trade issues will not form part of its remit. The working group will make specific recommendations to the 64th World Health Assembly, in 2011.
Viral hepatitis Member States accepted the report to the World Health Assembly and adopted a resolution including a World Hepatitis Day on 28 July. Viral hepatitis (i.e. hepatitis A, B, C, D and E) a combinati stimated to kill over 1 million people each year and an estimated 1 in 12 persons are currently infected and have to face a life with liver disease if unrecognized. This endorsement by Member States calls for WHO to develop a comprehensive approach to the prevention and control of these diseases.
Monitoring of the achievement of the health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) The resolution expresses concern at the relatively slow progress in attaining the Millennium Development Goals, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa and at the fact that maternal, newborn and child health as well as universal access to reproductive health services remain constrained by health inequities. Member States noted that MDGs 4 and 5 were lagging behind and agreed to strengthen national health systems as well as take into account health equity in all national policies. They also reaffirmed the value of primary health care and renewed their commitment to prevent and eliminate maternal, newbor morbidity.
International recruitment of health personnel: global code of practice The code of practice on the international recruitment of health personnel aims to establish and promote voluntary principles and practices for the ethical international recruitment of health personnel. It provides Member States with ethical principles for international health worker recruitment that strengthen the health systems of developing countries. It discourages states from actively recruiting health personnel from developing countries that face critical shortages of health workers, and encourages them to facilitate the "circular migration of health personnel" to maximize skills and knowledge sharing. It also enshrines equal rights of both migrant and non-migrant health workers.
Food Safety A large number of countries noted many diseases can be caused by unsafe food, that national food production systems are susceptible for food safety problems and that more food is traded across . The resolution supports improving the evidence base to estimate the burden of food borne diseases and the strengthening of global networks including INFOSAN (International Food Safety Authorities Network) and to improve the assessment, management and communications of foodborne and zoonotic risks in a timely manner.
WHO is encouraged to continue working directly with FAO and OIE to strengthen public health, support economic development, and continue joint risk assessments through WHO/FAO expert bodies, and establishment of standards through the FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius Commission.
Prevention and control of noncommunicable diseases: implementation of the global strategy Noncommunicable diseases - mainly cardiovascular diseases, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes - kill nearly 35 million people per year. Almost 90% of fatalities before the age of 60 occur in developing countries and are largely preventable.
Member States reviewed progress achi eved during the first wo years in implementing the Action Plan for the Global Strategy on the Prevention and Control of Noncommunicable Diseases. Member States highlighted successful approaches in: implementing interventions aimed at monitoring noncommunicable diseases and their contributing factors; addressing risk factors and determinants supported by effective mechanisms of intersectoral action; and improving health care for people with noncommunicable diseases through health system strengthening.
Developing countries also underlined that official development assistance in building sustainable institutional capacity to tackle noncommunicable diseases remains insignificant.
Strategies to reduce the harmful use of alcohol Each year, 2.5 million people worldwide die of alcohol-related causes. Harmful drinking is a risk factor for noncommunicable diseases and is also associated with various infectious diseases, as well as road traffic accidents , violence and suicides. For the first time, ber States reached consensus on a resolution to confront the harmful use of alcohol. In addition to the resolution, Member States discussed a global strategy to reduce the harmful use of alcohol which sets priority areas for action and recommends a portfolio of policy options and measures.
Global eradication of measles Member States endorsed a series of interim targets set for 2015 as milestones towards the eventual global eradication of measles. Countries were encouraged by the efforts and progress made in controlling measles but also highlighted the challenges that need to be addressed to achieve the 2015 targets. These include competing public health priorities, weak immunization systems, sustaining high routine vaccination coverage, addressing the funding gap, vaccinating the hard-to-reach population and addressing an increasing number of measles outbreaks particularly in cross border areas. Success in achieving the measles 2015 targets is a key issue if the Millennium De e child mortality is to be reached.
Availability, safety and quality of blood products The resolution paves the way to increase access to safe blood transfusion and to safe and affordable blood products in developing countries by encouraging them to establish national regulatory systems, using expertise and regulatory experience that already exists in other parts of the world.
Human organ and tissue transplantation New guidelines on human organ and tissue transplantation, add two new guiding principles to existing guidance. The first improves safety, quality and efficacy of both donation and transplantation procedures - as well as the human materials used. The second increases transparency, while ensuring the protection of the anonymity and privacy of donors and recipients.
Treatment and prevention of pneumonia WHO Member States adopted a resolution on the treatment and prevention of pneumonia -- the number one killer of children under five years globally. T ear that intensified efforts to address pneumonia are imperative if the achievement of Millennium Development Goal 4 is to be achieved.
Infant and young child nutrition About 112 million children worldwide are underweight and 186 million children under five are stunted (i.e. low height-for-age), 90% living in 36 countries. Malnutrition in children is related to inappropriate infant and young child feeding practices. Globally, only 35% of infants less than six months of age are exclusively breastfed and complementary feeding practices are far from optimal. Improvement of breastfeeding practices could save annually the lives of about one million children. Complementary feeding along with continual breastfeeding for up to two years or beyond could save the lives of another half a million children.
The resolution includes a call for increased political commitment, the implementation of the global strategy for infant and young child feeding, and strengthening of nutritio and improved use of millennium development goal indicators to monitor progress.
Birth defects A resolution was adopted to help redress the limited focus to date on preventing and managing birth defects, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The resolution calls on Member States to prevent birth defects wherever possible, to implement screening programmes, and to provide ongoing support and care to children with birth defects and their families.
Pandemic influenza preparedness: sharing of influenza viruses and access to vaccines and other benefits Members States expressed strong support for the continuing efforts of the Open-Ended Working Group to further global pandemic influenza preparedness by strengthening the sharing of influenza viruses and of benefits such as vaccines. Member States spoke on the progress made at the recent intergovernmental meeting (held 10-12 May 2010) and characterized the interaction as transparent, substantive, collaborative and a r future negotiation in this area. The role of industry as a stakeholder in the process to increase global capacity for vaccine production, increased technology transfer to developing countries, and access to supplies of vaccine and medicines at affordable prices for resource-limited countries were among issues raised. A number of countries urged the collaboration to move forward to increase pandemic preparedness and protect global public health. Having considered the report of the Open-Ended Working Group (15 April 2010), a resolution was passed: ? to request the Director-General to continue to support the effort and undertake any technical consultations and studies as necessary ? to decide that the group will report through the Executive Board to the Sixty-fourth World Health Assembly ( May 2011) .
Implementation of the International Health Regulations (2005) The first report of the of the review committee assessing the functioning of the International Health Regulations ( uenza was discussed.
Delegates stressed that the IHR is broader than pandemic and plays a vital role in global public health, and their countries fully support IHR implementation. Delegates detailed activities that their countries are carrying out to implement the Regulations at national and regional levels.
Member States underscored the need for individual, country-based capacity strengthening, learning from past lessons, the importance of flexibility and of reaching out beyond the health sector. They further expressed their appreciation of the IHR training and awareness raising activities supported by WHO and stressed the importance of monitoring IHR implementation. They also emphasized the need for strong communication and partnerships.

Dont know for renewal but for new visa the Hep B test was implemented I dont know when but it was before 2008, I declined a job in Qatar in 2007 due to that and checked all Middle east countrie around and they had same rule.

Wahhh my flight will be tomorrow.. Im going back to the philippines.. Im being deported because i have a hepa b. And i did pay for my air fare because the company didnt shoulder it.. I have nothing left in my pocket.. So deppressed. I dont know if i can find job in the philippines.. I have also to go to a doctor to talk with this health problem..

my husband planning to get me back in Dubai via husband visa. My last employer told me that i am ban for to years. Anyone here know where can we check the ban.

Soo sad am going back to the philippines now...

Dennis,

This post of yours is contradicting the previous information that you posted in an earlier post dated May 14 regarding Qatar and Saudi !!!!

So, I'm really confused now.... which one is true?

14 may; I posted about visa trips, not understanding what yesterday post contradict the one of 14 May ?

My impression is that the HBV test is an older story than 08/2008

Can a wife come first time or come back after a ban on a husband visa if she has Hep B ?

to blue25,

very very sorry for you. i understand the feeling especially when you have put all the efforts, money, and all your dreams when you enter the uae and suddenly all of these things vanish just because of this STUPID HEPA B LAW. Instead, of the UAE helping you financially by giving you job, it put you in trouble because of all your expenses coming here and now you're financially bankrupt.

i don't know why the government makes this hepaB look like a dreaded and cursed disease.

THE BEST ANSWER FOR THESE IS NOT TO BAN THE INFECTED, BUT TO GIVE VACCINE TO ALL THAT IS NOT INFECTED (VERY EASY AND CHEAP, LESS THAN THE COST OF EMIRATES ID). Then, all infected persons will be TOTALLY HARMLESS.

Take care....and May God Protect You!

Hi W_ali,

Most of people in this forum whose their job not fall in those 6 categories if it's new visa they still got banned unless like what you said if their PRO is good, but it's like 1 out of 10 to get good PRO or good hearted person who's understand detail about HBV or who's been experience handling HBV case.
And for house wife what i checked in this forum most of them are get banned, you right about "need bit a try" but what we need to try is very very high risk, if we trying for new visa and at the end those respected people would not even care what your job is even housewife you definitely get banned and we have to risk our family life. All what we want is to be together with our family and support our family to work for living.
Some people told in same forum that the law will amend within a month since last April or so for this summer, i've been came to UAE twice on visit visa (i'm a chronic healthy HBV carrier) but still no updated news about new law.

How about your case?? are you live in UAE or have you try to apply for residence visa in UAE?


I really hope the good news will come up very2 soon, time goes by and we just want good justice for all of us who needs to get better life as expatriat in foreign country.

GBUs..

If your job comes under this list, medical, cooks, beautician, nurse, maid etc so no matter what they won’t listen to you and put a ban on you and jobs like IT, media, banks etc such jobs also they won’t agree but you can fight for your case and they might give you a visa (also depends how good your pro is)
Well house wives can check the forum there are similar cases, but personally I believe they get visa just need to try a bit.
Ppl coming from Europe and US and if they are healthy carriers try to get a medical letter from any well known hospital back at home saying that your fit and all other useful things, it works at times.

Well talking about the actual duration of a ban it’s not related with years it’s only have to do with your infection even if your banned for 2 years but still infected even after 2 years consider yourself banned and getting a visit visa after being banned mmmmm not sure… @itwizard

thanks to all. am here in the philippines already... am a little bit confused what doctor should i go. do i have to go to the liver specialist? if i did have a blood check does the liver specialist can read all the details in blood cheking?

thanks jhanna and cassey.. i hope i can cope up with this problem.

hi shoe gal can you give me an advice to what specialist should i go?

Dear Blue25,

I'm really really sorry to hear your news,some people are not really2 bother about other people lives or needs cos they never been in our situation or never know the feeling of falls in deep dissapointed but please don't make this situation become worst for your life, you could still run your life in normal way just take care of your health much much better than before and have a very good life style, believe me everything happenned for a reason, just keep praying on GOD, i know it's sound cliche but if you rely and trusted HIM there will be a good and better way for you in a future.

I would suggest you to check with Liver specialist (Hepatologist)tell him that you just found out about this HBV and they will tell you what you need to check and definitely they can read the result. If you just notice that you got HBV less than 6 months there still away to prevent or to make this virus gone but you better discuss with doctor first. You better do it quick.

Well hopefully your feeling will get better soon, find activities you really like the most so you won't stuck in the same depression everyday.

Talk to this forum if there's something u wanna know or share, we can't do much at the moment except support you with some good words.

Hope it helps

Be strong dear n GBU and Us

I am inviting everyone to join the group below to learn more about Hepa B. You can find very good information from them too regarding HBV.

ww.hblist.org

Dear shoegal,

thanks a lot for the info.. Many people here in our place are asking me why Im home. I just tell them a lie, Only my parents know the situation..

I had my check up a while ago, an internal med.- gastro. He told me that it is impossible to get the virus if i am a positive carrier. He let me have a panel check up for the blood (hepaptits), the result will be tommorow. I also told him that i have an immunization twice for hepa when i was still a baby. Hope to hear a good news tommorow for the result...

I hope God will give me a new job. I had really to pay my debts.. All i can do for now is to pray...

God bless you always....

You can ask your husband to go to the nearest immigration office (DNRD). He can check at the Banned Section or the Blacklisted Section. He has to give your Passport number and your last visa entry number. Then they will check if you have ban, and for how long.

hi all
newbie here but same situation
my PRO called me told me my first blood test shown HepB and asked me to do the second test. I m always aware i m a HepB carrier however it didnt cause me any problem when i first came to uae and work for Nakheel in 2006 from sydney. Recently, i changed job and it caused me a huge problem this morning. The PRO asked me to do a second test at another clinic near al Quasis. I beleive the result will be the same and i will be deported even i m working as a property development project manager. I dont know what action i should take now. I am lost.

Gappy

Dont give up hope. Since you are not new you should tell the doctor that you are changing job and not in one of 6 categories. Go to Al baraha and explain situation to doctor there. I will look for one guy past post as he explained what exactly he did.
Meanwhile you go through the post from starting and see if you find it first.
