Question

Do children absolutely need to get the Hepatitis A vaccine?

Answer

The Hepatitis A vaccine should be administered to children around the age of one. If the child was not vaccinated at birth, they should receive the vaccine promptly. If they have already been vaccinated, and the effective immunity period for the Hepatitis A vaccine is 5 to 10 years, then it is also possible to get vaccinated again after 5 to 10 years.
