Question

At 10 years old, does a child need to reinforce the Hepatitis B vaccine injection?

Answer

As antibodies gradually diminish over time, it is recommended that a 10-year-old child receive a booster dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine. Additionally, if the child is diagnosed with liver disease, they should actively seek treatment from a doctor and pay attention to timely vaccination. At the same time, parents should be cautious not to allow their child to develop picky eating habits. They should maintain a balanced diet and good hygiene practices.
