If an individual is vaccinated with the Hepatitis vaccine(s) will it prevent them from acquiring Hepatitis if they sleep with someone with Acute Hepatitis B they've had 1 year?

I would assume that if you had the hep B vaccine you are good to go. I got both A&B vaccines when it was discovered I have hep.C. After all, isn't that the purpose of the vaccine?

If the fiance hasn't gotten vaccinated yet, he should start. If I recall it takes a number of shots to get the job done. If in doubt call the Dr. That's what they get paid outrageous amounts for. :o)

I just saw that it takes 3 shots & it's good for 15 years.
