Partial Hep B vaccination

My boyfriend had either the first or the first two doses of the hep b vaccine about 10 years ago. I have Hep B (diag. 1996)and we are wondering if anyone knows if those few doses of the vaccine would help in his immunnity towards the Hep B virus? Any helpful info would be great.Thanks

my husband gets hep a and b vaccines every 7-10 years or sooner, not sure...you have to get a booster every few years and I think it's 7-10 years but I am not sure...I will ask him when he gets home...

you will need to get a titer test to see if the immunity is still there, then act accordingly.
