§ Ms PrimaroloTo ask the Secretary of State for Health what is her estimate of the percentage of doctors who have had Hepatitis B vaccinations.
§ Dr. MawhinneyThis information is not available centrally. Independent studies indicate that the number of doctors immunised against Hepatitis B varies from 50 per cent. of those practising to a much higher figure—up to 90 per cent.—among surgeons who are at a greater risk from transmission of the disease.
