Full transcript
Mr. Andrade, thank you for coming in today. Your blood test confirms you carry Hepatitis B, but your liver function results look completely normal.
Enfermeira, isso quer dizer que estou doente? Fiquei preocupado, porque nunca tive nenhum sintoma antes disso.
It means the virus is in your blood, but you're not sick right now. We'll check your liver every six months at Concord Hospital.
E isso é perigoso para minha família? Minha esposa está grávida, será que ela também pode pegar o vírus?
It spreads through blood and body fluids, not through sharing food, cutlery, or hugging. Your wife should get vaccinated if she hasn't already.
Entendi. Como ela pode tomar essa vacina? É pelo Medicare mesmo, ou tem algum custo envolvido?
The vaccine is free through Medicare and given in three doses over six months. She can book it at her regular GP clinic.
Certo, enfermeira. Então eu não preciso tomar nenhum remédio agora? Isso me deixou bem mais tranquilo.
You don't need medication right now, unless your viral load increases significantly. If that happens, I'll refer you to a liver specialist promptly.
Posso continuar trabalhando normalmente? Eu sou cozinheiro num restaurante aqui em Marrickville.
There are no work restrictions at this stage, but please avoid alcohol and come back in six months for your next blood test.
Muito obrigado, enfermeira. Vou marcar a consulta e volto em seis meses, como a senhora sugeriu.

Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The practice room on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went. Your first full dialogue is marked free.
