A member asked:

What happens if someone gets all three hepatitis b vaccines but a titer still indicates no immunity. what does that mean?

Dr. Michael Rupp answered

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Boost It: Usually that means you need an additional dose of vaccine. Give the vaccine then check titers 6-8 weeks later and see if they are present.
