I’m certainly aware of the controversies related to infant and child vaccines and if you were concerned about your child I wouldn’t challenge you at all, as it is your choice. But you should reread the literature available, as most contraindications and complications are related to child vaccines. You, as a 29 year old, presumably healthy with no prior history, should not have any adverse affects. If you do enter the medical field, you’re entering the high risk career for Hep B and you ought to do whatever you can to lessen that risk.

But you don’t have to make a ‘final decision’. Sign the waiver, learn from your professors and then make a better informed decision.
