A member asked:
I received my hep b vaccines late, years apart, i have been told that i could be infected with hep b, can i be protected or do i need to get vaccinate?

Blood test: You can consult your doctor to get your blood tested for hep b. The tests can distinguish between vaccine response and hep b infection. The test results will also help in deciding if you need vaccination.

Neither: If you have been told correctly that you are infected with hepatitis b, then vaccination will neither help or hurt. Blood tests can tell the difference.
