Hepatologist Questions Hepatitis vaccine

Are hepatitis vaccines necessary?

I'm trying to research each of the vaccines my child should have, and I have a few questions about the hepatitis A vaccine. Is this vaccine really necessary? How often would he need to be vaccinated for hepatitis A?

Hepatitis A vaccine is only given once. However it's not a part of routine vaccination. It's only recommended for people traveling to endemic countries.
Nope
