Isn't there some bad stuff about Hep B vaccination side effects? Vaguely remember hearing a radio program maybe a couple of years back about people being advised to have it because of exposure at work, and then finding they could no longer work at all.

I could have got this all wrong. Anyone?

Nick-H, looks llike you are right..I called my doctor/friend on reading this he says the issue is under debate...so there may be some side-effects...In India they are giving it to all the kids..my daughter got it as well, and the boster (i think) is due.

clicked on the following google ad. link at the bottom of this thread...here again they are debating on the safty of hip-B
