2020-04-29 10:14:22
I am a dental student . I've completed 2 dose (out of 3) of hep B vaccination (hepavax) . I am unsure about the 3rd dose(absence of record), possibly have missed it. What should i do, am i supposed to retake the full course of vaccination or should I restart course with the missed dose? Is booster dose required?
