My boy has not been given Hep-B1 vaccine after his birth or during discharge from hospital. He is 21 days old now. It is suggested for him in 6th week. He had small issue with breathing after birth. Please I want to have a second opinion on this. Regards.

Nowdays. Hep b is given at birth as long as the baby is 2 kgs. Better to give now and not to wait till 6 weeks.
