Great. This is SO not what we need! UPDATE
DH is a FDNY EMT, he texted me earlier tonight that he was exposed to Hep B and is in the Coney Island ER
He will probably be off work for a month b/c even though he is low risk for contracting the disease, they still want him on a preventitive cocktail of medicine that makes you physically ill...for a month.
This is going to be rough
ETA: He just got home and it is AZT to prevent HIV that they gave him. The patient denied having it. Man, this is some mindf*ck.

He is vaccinated for EVERYTHING, but I am guessing it is just a precaution

Ugh- that sucks. At least he'll be home with you for a month (although if he's sick from the meds that might not be so great....)

If he's vaccinated, there's little chance he can contract it. I hope

My BIL is also EMS FDNY and was exposed to menengitis when my sister was PG. The precautions are very necessary. I hope he doesnt feel to sick from everything.
