ccording to one of the studies lin#ed on Green Med Info" "Evidence ... suggests that hepatitis B vaccine is positively associated with adverse health outcomes in the general population of US children." &or more information' !ou can clic# the lin# below. There is no vaccine that gets me more upset than hepatitis B. There are two primar! reasons for this. It is given to virtuall! ever! newborn in the hospital and man! times without parents% consent shortl! after the child is born. If the parent chooses not to have their ()*hour*old newborn vaccinated in the newborn nurser!' it ta#es enormous effort on the parent%s part to ma#e sure this vaccine is not given without their informed consent before the bab! leaves the hospital. +econdl! this vaccine given on the da! of birth is the least ,ustifiable of an! vaccine that I can thin# of. child can -./0 get the disease from I1 drug abuse' se2ual activit! with an infected partner' a blood transfusion using contaminated blood' -3 from the mother. There are few or no detectable antibodies in the blood of most children within 4*(0 !ears after the! are vaccinated so booster shots will probabl! be recommended b! government officials in the future for children entering adolesence. -bviousl! the onl! real threat during infanc! is if a child is born to an infected mother. +o wh! not screen // pregnant women for the disease and onl! give the vaccine to those infants whose mothers actuall! test positive for hepatitis B5 That polic! would be a lot less e2pensive' as well as a lot safer for the ma,orit! of babies born in the 6nited +tates. lso what about the side effects associated with adverse health outcomes in the general population of 6+ children5 7ow about one lin#ed to serious autoimmune disorders' autism' Bell%s pals!' multiple sclerosis'
anaph!lactic shoc# and death5 8ust one vaccination' hepatitis B' has been lin#ed to all of the above and more' !et continues to be part of the standard government*recommended childhood vaccination schedule' with the first dose given at () hours of age in the newborn nurser! of most hospitals.

stud! published +eptember )009 in nnals of :pidemiolog! also found that giving hepatitis B vaccine to infant bo!s more than tripled their ris# for an autism spectrum disorder. This was doubl! concerning because an earlier stud! b! the same researcher group' using a different database' found the same results. There are more reports of serious adverse reactions in children than there are cases of childhood hepatitis B reported in the 6nited +tatesC &rom (990 to )00)' there were a total of ,ust (?'@)9 cases of acute hepatitis B reported among children aged (9 and !ounger' and as the $=$ stated"
"The incidence among adolescents aged 15 1! years was consistently higher than the incidence among younger age groups." Dhich begs the question' wh! are babies being vaccinated for this disease5
But again' most babies are at ver! low ris# of hepatitis B in the first place' so the question to as# is does the vaccine%s benefit outweigh its ris#s5 It%s worth noting as well that' as adults' most people infected with hepatitis B don%t require hospital care and the ma,orit! recover without complications and are left with natural' lifelong immunit!.
