HepB was for teens or older people who don’t trust their sexual partners history. May as well take HPrep too in case you suddenly have risky anal. Any other high risk shots and pills to take to save my future? |

Live disease?! Liver disease is caused by factors like viral infections (Hepatitis B & C), heavy alcohol use, fatty liver (linked to obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol), autoimmune conditions, genetic disorders, and exposure to toxins, leading to inflammation and scarring (cirrhosis) that impair liver function. Lifestyle choices, including poor diet (processed foods, sugar) and drug use (shared needles), significantly increase risk, as do metabolic conditions like metabolic syndrome. |
The entire premise of MAGA is mare money for billionaires and big corporations by convincing runs they are owning libs. It’s ALWAYS about more profits for corporations. Not recommending means no coverage. |

Uptake data is quite low.
Wonder how much supply we’ve been throwing away each year or upon expiry. |
+1 Also the revenue of the unregulated wellness industry is far higher than the pharmaceutical industry. RFK himself has made millions from his anti vaccine sh*t. Maybe follow who promotes anti vax stances while profiting from wellness crap. |
I have no idea what data you’re looking at, but I find this almost impossible to believe |

Here is a map showing which countries recommend Hep B shots at birth. Africa and western Europe very much stand out:

My kids (2008 & 2010) were vaccinated on the standard schedule, and did not begin the hep B series until 2 months (along with their other shots).
At the hospital I was asked “do you want hep B now, or to follow up with your ped (which is what most do)?” And I said I’d follow up with the ped. It was clearly considered the norm. I’m not a “delayed vaxer” or anything like that. My kids received what was recommended & it was made clear that hep B at the hospital was very much optional - and that most waited for ped visit. We lived in Madison WI at the time and my kids were born at a UW hospital. I really don’t understand the drama surrounding all of this, or what has changed, TBH. Is it just fear that insurance won’t cover a birth dose now? |
It’s tribalism |
People most at risk of Hepatitis B probably aren’t getting regular obgyn care. They might not even get regular prenatal care. |
They must show a united front, despite internal disagreements and doubts with established policy. Would be interesting to go back and review public views during the time this policy came into effect. |
Recommend for High risk for S T D mothers. Most pregnant humans are tested for S T Ds for this very reasons- risk to baby. |
So why are we pushing more shots on all newborns? Is this to camouflage the High Risk Moms amongst the and S T D Moms? Make everyone feel better? Unlikely. It makes someone more money. |
So newborns and Medicaid recipients are throwing money at the Wellness Industry? For what? Gel nail tips and hair extensions? |
You had a choice! This decision takes that choice away from millions of families with zero justification why. Its great that you A. Have a pediatrician B. Have the means to follow up on your schedule C. Many families don’t. Or don’t want to have to worry. Or whatever. Just because it wasn’t hard for you, doesn’t mean it is for everyone. And again, why? There has been zero explanation, just “yeh, we don’t feel like it.” That is NOT how a responsible person runs a national health program. |
