I wish I hadn't taken that link. How crazy that anyone might think they could prove that their MS was caused by this vacine, when people get MS all the time, who never had these vacines. A colleague of mine has MS at the moment, in his case, it seems to be hereditary. There is a suggestion that an environmental trigger may be linked to MS in some people (be it some chemical, a virus, or who knows what), but the idea that we might have a real risk of getting MS from taking a Hep A or B vacines is starting to get into fantasy delusional territory IMO - the Hep A or B risk is way way higher.

b4 i started tx for hepc i was given a series of 3 hep b, and hep a immunization shots to prevent getting the other hep's. so i guess the answer to your question would be yes there is an immunization for hep a and hep b.  but i do not believe there is one for hep c.

hope this helps
