Your current status: If an immunisation is "current" it means we believe you to be immune, or your vaccinations are up-to-date. For example, doctors recommend that adults get tetanus vaccination boosters every 10 years to "remain current". On the other hand, if you have had a primary course of 3 x hepatitis B vaccines, you are considered immune for life.
