When are health checkups required for medical students?
I’m sure you had your Hepatitis B titres done (and received your Hep B boosters, if necessary) before matriculating. Besides these, you won’t need any other further investigations throughout med school. Before starting medical school, they also check for Hep C, HIV, and your immunisation status to mmr, varicella and pertussis. Usually only Hep B is the problem because 50% of ppl don’t have enough antibodies, and some ppl need to get jabs for like 2 or 3 years.
