Hi Folks, I have a lady who is over 50 and on 3 occasions has started a course of hep b, but never completed with the third vaccination on any of the 3 attempts (nothing to do with me), she has minimal contact with blood and works in a lab. Would those of you that do hep b's persist and try to complete a course? Did I read somwhere that the efficacy of the hep b vaccine is reduced as one gets older and does anyone have information regarding the link to MS? Thanks again for your help Sue.
