I know the history is on a compiled page of information. Searching the external links on that page may yield more direct results. --Sir Brizz (talk) 14:36, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think this Wikipedia entry left out a very important detail; that the transmission is fecal - oral. Meaning that someone with Hep A, who doesn't wash their hands and prepares your food can transmit it to you. http://www.medicinenet.com/hepatitis_immunizations/article.htm — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.198.142.16 (talk) 21:04, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is the USD cost per dose or for the recommended two doses?--Lucas559 (talk) 19:05, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest at least putting a link to the CDC website (because recommendations seem to change all the time) but an image of the schedule would be nice to have too. If I can figure out how to do it, I will, but I imagine anyone else who reads this will beat me to it. Aliciadcadams (talk) 21:22, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. Feel free to add the schedule. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:06, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
