Stuart FischbeinHOST
13:38
And this is from Valeria on X, and it says, "During pregnancy, health officials urged my daughter to get eight vaccines, COVID, flu, DTaP, RSV, meningitis, pneumonia, Hep A, and Hep B." Now, the first four are commonly given, wrongly in my mind, but they're commonly...
Stuart FischbeinHOST
13:59
But, um, the last four, that's like starting to get in real, I mean, super crazy town.
Stuart FischbeinHOST
14:04
"Pregnancy used to be protected," she says.
Stuart FischbeinHOST
15:27
Until they can prove that these things are safe in pregnancy, which they never will because you can't do the studies anymore, um, then don't take them.
Stuart FischbeinHOST
15:39
You know, your...
Stuart FischbeinHOST

The most common causes worldwide are hepatitis A, B, and C, three different viruses with different routes of transmission and different long-term implications.
speaker_1NARRATOR

Hepatitis A is typically spread through contaminated food or water and usually causes a short-term illness without lasting liver damage.
speaker_1NARRATOR
0:59
Hepatitis B and C, on the other hand, are spread through blood and other body fluids and can become chronic infections that persist for years, gradually damaging the liver if untreated.

Common symptoms of acute hepatitis include fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite, abdominal discomfort, dark urine, and jaundice, a yellowing of the skin and eyes caused by a buildup of bilirubin.

I also had a tattoo done a few years back, if that's relevant.
speaker_2VOICE_ACTOR

Both of those are worth noting.

Travel to areas with less reliable food and water hygiene raises the possibility of hepatitis A, which is spread through contaminated food or water.
HarperHOST
24:09
The hepatitis viruses.
HarperHOST
24:12
Hepatitis A, B, and C are the most common ones.
HarperHOST
24:16
Guess what part of your anatomy the hepatitis viruses attack? Your liver.
HarperHOST

You need that.
Ida Normiha HilmiGUEST
41:02
I went to South America many years ago and
Lau SuyinGUEST
41:04
I had so many jabs and hep A.
Ida Normiha HilmiGUEST
41:08
Most people have subclinical hep A in Malaysia.
George LeeHOST
41:12
Because of all the C-harm.
George LeeHOST
41:13
So
Ida Normiha HilmiGUEST
41:13
most of the time it doesn't cause trouble, but I don't.
Ida Normiha HilmiGUEST
41:16
Again, what's the harm? I don't know whether they still have it, but you can also get the Hep A, Hep B combined.
Ida Normiha HilmiGUEST
41:23
I don't know whether they still have those vaccines.
Matt JensenHOST

recommended or required.
Matt JensenHOST
8:54
Other of your vaccinations or immunizations that you might be asked for when you visit a travel clinic is hepatitis A, the hepatitis B series, typhoid, even rabies.
Matt JensenHOST
9:05
So do you need all these? First of all, none of them are required.
Matt JensenHOST
9:10
Some of them might be recommended based on your history and your comfort level.
Matt JensenHOST
9:17
Do all the dogs and pets have rabies? No, but pet immunizations is not as widespread recommended or followed in these countries.
Matt JensenHOST
9:27
But there's no general reports of these high degrees or transmissions of rabies.
Matt JensenHOST
9:32
Hepatitis A, hepatitis B.
Matt JensenHOST
9:35
Again, these are vaccinations that oftentimes are given to healthcare professionals.
Bliss YoungHOST
49:42
For the mom
Sherri TenpennyGUEST
49:42
... yeah, you don't have to know about Hepatitis A, and Gardasil, and meningitis vaccines, and chicken pox vaccines, and, uh, the, even the MMR.
Sherri TenpennyGUEST
49:49
Y- you can look at those later.
Bliss YoungHOST
49:51
Right.
Jill MaloneGUEST
31:06
And you're in contact, no matter how much PPE you have on, you know, you're going to get splatter.
Jill MaloneGUEST
31:14
And so, you know, when I was at the San Diego Zoo, there was an outbreak of hepatitis A with all the workers there that had been, you know, because we'd caught them from monkeys.
Jill MaloneGUEST
31:26
Another time, this was really early, we were injecting an animal and somebody went to cap the needle.
Jill MaloneGUEST
31:34
This was before we had a lot of um, bioprotection protocol and they jabbed themselves with a needle after it had been in an animal.
CarltonHOST
71:31
I have a huge list of vaccines that I tell people to get.
CarltonHOST
71:34
HPV, Mpox, Hepatitis A and B.
CarltonHOST
71:38
And then, you know, so...
CarltonHOST
71:43
Even the meningitis vaccines are important as well because of the way we play.
Monique YohannanGUEST
21:41
But when you look at the rest of the world, they don't generally do hepatitis B vaccination.
Monique YohannanGUEST
21:46
They don't really do hepatitis A.
Monique YohannanGUEST
21:50
Years ago, the World Health Association, the virus authorities and vaccine authorities in the UK and Canada stopped doing it for kids for the COVID vaccine.
Monique YohannanGUEST
22:01
Influenza tends not to be a required vaccine.
Monique YohannanGUEST
22:07
You know, HPV tends, the human papillomavirus tends not to be required.
Monique YohannanGUEST
22:13
I look at like COVID and flu, hepatitis B, hepatitis A, vaccines like that, which is part of why the schedule got so big.
Monique YohannanGUEST
22:22
Those are like the individually protective vaccines.
Monique YohannanGUEST
22:26
And what's different in the United States is we mandated a bunch of vaccines that were not about protecting the community.
Melanie MatheuHOST
24:49
Respiratory syncytial virus, that's RSV, that's with monoclonal antibodies.
Melanie MatheuHOST
24:54
Hepatitis A, hepatitis B, meningococcal B, meningococcal ACWY, and dengue.
Zachary RubinHOST
25:02
All right.
Zachary RubinHOST
25:03
I need to stop you there because first off, what's weird is The RSV antibodies are not a vaccine.
Melanie MatheuHOST
28:21
All right.
Melanie MatheuHOST
28:22
Part three.
Melanie MatheuHOST
28:23
Immunizations based on shared clinical decision-making will be hepatitis A, B, rotavirus, meningococcal disease, influenza, and COVID-19.
Zachary RubinHOST
28:31
This is where it gets really messed up, because why do you have, in number two, certain high-risk groups, but then say the same vaccines, Hep A, Hep B, meningococcal disease, and you don't even bother writing MenB versus ACWY in the third one? This is so sloppy.
