B Correct answer
Explanation

When someone suspects they have an infection based on symptoms or observation, they express this as a belief or conviction. 'I believe I have caught an infection' is natural because you're stating a conclusion based on evidence (symptoms). 'I hope I have caught an infection' would mean you desire being sick, which is not the intended meaning.
