Vaccinations

These are the shots we need to get in January… ouch.
Hepatitis A – Useful everywhere and good for 10 years. Usually requires 2 shots.
Hepatitis B – Same as Hep-A, good for 10 years, but requires 3 injections.
Tetanus+ – Good for 10 years.
Japanese Encephalitis – A nasty brain swelling disease that is carried by mosquitoes. Found in rural areas. This is unfortunately an expensive and painful series, but worth it if you plan to spend time in the mountains or jungle. Requires 3 shots.
Typhoid Fever – The good news about this one is that you can take pills instead of getting jabbed! Good for 5 years.
Yellow Fever, Polio, Meningitis, Diphtheria, Rabies
And prescriptions for anti-malarial medicines, traveller’s diaherrea pills, anti-motion pills etc. We can research the vaccinations are required or recommended for countries on the CDC Website.
