[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hep A unfortunately does exist here—there was a big outbreak in Michigan a few years ago. There was an outbreak at the local jail. When people got out of jail, they went back to their jobs in restaurants, thereby spreading hep A to hundreds of people outside the normal risk groups: https://www.freep.com/story/news/health/2019/09/20/hepatitis-a-outbreak-michigan/2276156001/

There was also an outbreak in San Diego in 2017/. I remember as I was living in a developing country and there was such a shortage of Hep A vaccine the pediatrician recommended getting it when we went home or on holiday. We tried for 6 months to get it in country before getting in a third country while on holiday. We were very lucky we managed to snag the second dose six months later without having to do that again.

Hep A is given at 12 months and recommended for all children between 12-23 months. PP brought it up that they didn’t get it overseas and OP claimed out breaks didn’t exist in the US. Two of us noted recent outbreaks. [/quote]
