Hepatitis A vaccines are fairly simple: 2 shots in 6 months give 12 months of protection, and a third shot after 6 more months gives 20 years of protection. Children as young as 1 year old can be given the vaccine. Please talk to your doctor about getting this vaccine to protect you and your loved ones against this disease.

And, defense in depth: Also don't take your children places where people are pooping on the street, or leaving around needles, if you can help it.

Although I don't see why "just get a vaccine" is a sufficient response to "I don't want my children around feces and needles".

You read too much into my reply. My only point was that hepatitis A is a disease that is easily defended against, and I wanted to spread that knowledge.
