A tiny population of cells that are passed across the placenta between mother and baby challenge basic tenets of human immunology.

As Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated in 1933; “We can have democracy in this country or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.”
Today, at a time of unprecedented income & wealth inequality, his words ring truer than ever.

There is a reason babies are vaccinated for HBV. Not just because the mother might be HBV positive but because being infected early on in life almost ensures that they will develop chronic liver disease, or maybe liver cancer. Do you know that every person who handles your baby is HBV neg?
