Hepatitis B Vaccine
Find out what vaccinations you may need for you destination
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is a serious liver infection that spreads through blood and bodily fluids. It occurs most often in parts of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Travellers can lower their risk by getting the hepatitis B vaccine in Manchester, especially if they plan to engage in activities such as unprotected sex, receive medical treatment abroad, or stay long-term in high-prevalence regions.
Symptoms
Hepatitis B often causes no symptoms, especially in children. When symptoms occur, people may experience jaundice, fever, stomach pain, or loss of appetite. Chronic infection increases the risk of serious liver problems, such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. That’s why early diagnosis and treatment play a key role in preventing long-term complications.
Vaccination
The hepatitis B vaccine provides strong, long-lasting protection, making it ideal for travellers to high-risk regions. Healthcare professionals administer it as a course of three injections, with flexible timing based on your travel plans. Most people don’t need a booster, as the vaccine gives protection for many years. In certain cases, clinicians may recommend a blood test to confirm immunity.
