I need to know wheather i need to repeat my vaccination? Waiting for your answer. Thank u in advance. |

 Your HBV vaccine worked because your surface antibodies are higher than the cut-off of the test. I can't tell if your HAV vaccine worked because the wrong test (IgM) was ordered. That is to look for acute HAV infection. You need an IgG test. | ||||||||
