The Real Risks of Giving (or Skipping) the Hepatitis B Shot for Your Baby
A vaccine for a blood-borne disease became routine on day one of life. Why?

Before the hepatitis B vaccine was mandated for kids to attend school in almost all 50 states, the risk of a baby dying from hepatitis B was 1 in 7 million.
“That means you need to give 7 MILLION hepatitis B vaccines to prevent ONE death,” RFK Jr. says.
When you give 7 million vaccines to save one life, you’d better make damn sure it’s safe.
But is it really? Let’s take a look at the evidence.
Every newborn in America is pushed toward a Hepatitis B vaccine within hours of being born.
And that sounds completely normal to most people because the policy has been normalized for decades.
But when you take a close look at Hepatitis B, the risk group, the benefit math, and the forgotten safety record, the birth-dose policy becomes very difficult to defend.
Hepatitis B is a real disease.
Chronic infection can damage the liver, lead to liver failure, and increase the risk of liver cancer later in life.
That part is not the dispute.
The dispute is whether every newborn, including babies born to mothers who test negative for Hepatitis B, should receive the vaccine on their very first day of life.
