I'm going to Belize in May. Hepatitis-A is a recommended vaccine to get if you're visiting Belize. If I had a Hep-A vaccine in October/November 2004, do I need to get re-vaccinated?

hepatitis A vaccination requires two doses one month apart, if you did not get a second dose, you need to get it before you go to Beliz.

When you're done with the vaccination series, you will need a titer to make sure that the vaccination took.
