Hepatitis A vaccines are fairly simple: 2 shots in 6 months give 12 months of protection, and a third shot after 6 more months gives 20 years of protection. Children as young as 1 year old can be given the vaccine. Please talk to your doctor about getting this vaccine to protect you and your loved ones against this disease.

- shard 9y agoYou read too much into my reply. My only point was that hepatitis A is a disease that is easily defended against, and I wanted to spread that knowledge.
