Typhoid, Hep A, MMR if you haven’t had it, consult your GP, the nurse will give them, HepA lasts 25 years now, if you don’t have the recommendations you won’t be insured
You need to seek GP advise we are not medical experts and can’t comment
I did pre covid and trip got cancelled so I’m now hesitant. Should be ok for hep A not sure how long typhoid vaccination lasts but ill take my chances
My GP recommended Typhoid and Hep A as needed and recommended also Rabies and Malaria. Didn’t get the Rabies or Malaria but got the first two. Used Mossie spray bought over there
No.
I’m still sick from Ross River virus contracted 3 years ago.
To be honest, I travel extensively, and I never have. It’s actually a lot easier and less dangerous to treat malaria. Then to take the pills
Yes. So many say don’t bother, but why risk it? It’s such an easy thing to do and most last for years.
Why would you not ???
Saying ‘I’ve been travelling for years, never had any injections, and never got sick’ is a bit like saying’ I’ve never had a car accident so I don’t bother wearing my seatbelt any more’. Exactly the same principle. Just because you have travelled in tropical countries before and not got sick in the past, doesn’t mean that it will be the same for every trip. I have had all of these injections except taking malaria tablets because if I am diligent, I can safeguard myself against both malaria and Dengue fever by using a good quality insect repellent..
