Hello ladies and gentleman.
I went to my regular STD check up the other day, and this time, I also asked to check antibody for Hepatitis B.
Apparently, the immune system in the odd for Hep B can go low over time, and it is recommended to re immunize every 10years.
Because I am from Japan, I was not sure when the vacination was done, so I checked it after my medical doctor client suggested me that.
The test result came back with no STD sign, but antibody for HepB was low.
So, I went reimmunize myself.
I understand immunization is personal choice in Canada.
If you are interested in, here is the government information on that.
