Dear Dr Leela and MRCHans, thanks for your replies.

I have had a look at the link and it is very useful - thanks.

I am not sure what to do, I will see if I am asked about Hep B Vaccine at interview and/or on any medical forms - I have applied for other jobs (some clerical within the NHS) and I think that I would prefer those jobs if I am offered them as I really do not want to have the vaccine (and feel that people shouldn't be forced to!).

I think in the UK hospital staff have to have the vaccine if they are handling blood products, I do not expect to have to do this in the job I've applied for (ECG technician) so I will wait and see - with all likelihood I will prbably not be offered the job anyway (probably too qualified!! always the story!) so I am just theorising over nothing!!

Thanks,
Kara x
