Julia: I wonder what the concern is about the hepatitis B vaccine. This
is the vaccine that is being given routinely to all newborns in the US
(the schedule is : 1st dose at birth, 2nd at 1-2 months, 3rd at age 6-18
months). Why would we be concerned about the mother receiving a vaccine
which we would directly give to a newborn? Alicia. [log in to unmask]
