Hep B HELP!!

My very new boyfriend has had hepatitis b in the past. And says he is clear of it now.
I have not had all of my hepatitis vaccinations yet, I still have one more jab to go.
If I have intercourse with him whilst wearing a condom, is there still a chance I could contract the infection? And will he be infectious for the rest of his life?

Thankyou x

Hello

If we assume you use the condom correctly --that is before intercourse and that it doesn't break/tear/fail then your chance of getting Hep B is zero.

To answer your last question, he needs to address that with his doctor.
