Haircut in thailand hairdresser used cut throat blade not sure if new or used caused small cuts on skin hep b risk? my 3rd last hb shot due april ?

Blades/ Hep B risk: if you had 2 doses there is a good probability you are already immune - but you can call you doctor or health department and ask for hep b immune globulin to give an extra boost . But i would also check in 2 months if you have hep c antibodies because if you do you have hep c and have to be treated, there is no vaccine for hep c yet.
