    • A law enacted by the State of Connecticut mandates that all college students must be informed of Hepatitis B infection and its devastating consequences. All Physician Assistant students are required to be vaccinated for Hepatitis B or provide serologic evidence of immunity. College students are at an increased risk of developing a Hepatitis B infection. All students are strongly encouraged to be vaccinated for Hepatitis B, which is administered as a series of three (3) injections over a six-month period. Refer to the Hepatitis B fact sheet.
