The answer is E, C, B. If virus is not completely eliminated a carrier state may develop with continued expression of HBsAg; this is viral envelope and is of low infectivity.

In some cases chronic liver disease develops with continued expression of HBcAg and HBs Ag.

Successful elimination of virus with resolution of the hepatitis results from adequate humoral responses.

Antimitochondrial Ab (A) is present in primary biliary cirrhosis. Predominant HBcAg (D) expression occurs in carriers who remain highly infective.
