Please state your source, if possible. If I have been vaccinated, is it possible for me to still get Hep B from someone who has it (sexual contact, etc.)?

My source is my doctor...once you are vaccinated, you are protected for life. Just ask your doc.

Hep A, B & C can only be transimited via contact w/infected blood Sexual activity is a rare way to transfer however, without getting graphic, it can be passed on that way In your case, B won't be an issue since you're vaccinated. but A & C are still an issue.
Many sources--just learned yesterday that I have a raging case of HepC, so I googled the heck out of it last night. Learned alot.
I imigine I'll be learning even more in the near future. .

Yes you can.

If your antibody titres are low it means that even though you got the vaccine you didnt develop enough antibodies.

Also, if for some reason you batch # for your vaccine was defective or expired.

I cant remember if that vaccine requires cold storage but if you vaccine was not stored under the required storage conditions then the vaccine is compromised.

Get antibodies titres for Hep B to determine if you are truly immune to it.
