Question |
Is booster of Hep A vacc requird?
|
|
Answer |
Data have shown that after a full primary immunization course protective antibodies persist for more than 10 years in healthy individuals and underlying immune memory provides protection far beyond the duration of anti HAV Antibodies. So it can be concluded that there is no evidence to lend support to HAV booster vaccination after a full primary vaccination course in healthy individuals. However for special patient groups further research is needed.
