Sorry about the double post. I got an SQL error message after the first post so assumed it hadn't worked!

I'm fairly sure you only pay for Hep B jabs in the UK if you say you are travelling on business. If you say your on holiday they supply for free.

WRONG, certainly in Oxfordshire where i live, if you want HepB it's 30 pounds a shot and 3 shots over a 6 week period.

The success rate of Hep B jab is not great and it may take a second or third try to get it to work and it's possible some doctors could charge for this. It is a 3 jab course and a booster after 3 to 5 years.

CORRECT, they give you a book with the dates of the injection and when the 5 year booster is due.

Well worth the hassle as it's easily transmitted through saliva. Everyone should get all the jabs you can before you go to LOS. In most developed countries they are free because prevention is cheaper than cure or ongoing care.


TOTALLY CORRECT, saliva can easily transmit HepB, so if you even want to kiss someone beware, just get jabbed up

I certainly don't want to discourage anyone from getting the vaccination. But the assertion that you can get Hep B from kissing is denied by the National Institutes of Health:

"Hepatitis B (and hepatitis C) viruses cannot be spread by casual contact, such as holding hands, sharing eating utensils or drinking glasses, breast-feeding, kissing, hugging, coughing, or sneezing."

NIH is the leading health authority in the world. The entire report is here: NIH Report on Hep B

Regarding hep B shots. 5-15% of people are non responders to this vaccine ie they do not generate any antibodies. I am one of these having had 7 shots in all, 6 in UK 1 in Thailand. All to no detectable effect with following blood tests. Although rimming does not interest me as yet. I have pratised cunnilingus many many times in all sorts of positions with some highly promiscuous GGs during the course of my life and recently had intimate recent sexual contact with 12 diferent LBs. A blood test 2 weeks ago at a famous UK hospital shows no hep B detected.

Bankok hospital Bangkok or in Pattaya will do these shots for 800bt a shot plus consultation fee . GET the shots and follow up blood test its only money.
