Hepatitis B3 Vaccination
My son is 6 months old and have been administered Hepatitis vaccination immediately after birth and after 6 weeks. During the recent 6 month checkup, doctor has advised us that since he has already been given B1 & B2, therefore B3 is not required. Request advice. I checked online and it suggests that minimum 3 or 4 doses are required. This question is just to have a second opinion. Thanks in advance.
