Answers:
Current data show that vaccine-induced hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs) levels may decline over time; however, immune memory (anamnestic anti-HBs response) remains intact indefinitely following immunization!. Persons with declining antibody levels are still protected against clinical illness and chronic disease!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

As long as you get the entire series of shots (3 altogether), then you should be all set for life!. As far as right now, there is no booster shot, but we know that can change in the future!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
