Hepatitis B has a vaccine administered over a six month period in around three doses. It is often advised to have blood drawn after the last dose to assure that your blood contains the correct antibodies and that you are protected. Even if you get the vaccine, always take care when handling body fluid and use personal protective equipment. The vaccine must be administered to all employees who fit into a type A role, who will or may come into contact with blood and body fluid by job description, which for some work places only has to occur after the first exposure incident.
