Here in calif. all children have to have the hep b series to enter 7th grade, my kids had in when they were in grade school. I have a friend at work that has hep b chronically, he is on a liver transplant list. Most people get hep b get sick and then get better, 10 percent of people get it and it doesn't go away and it destroys the liver.

I got the shots just because I work with this person, I know its stupid and you can't get it from casual contact it just freaked me out.
