JY are in a tricky position with regards to giving medical advice, I would always go with what Cindy (Nixon) says and seek advice from your Practice Nurse. Some surgeries have specific Travel Clinics - just make sure you go at least eight weeks before you travel to allow any inoculations a chance to work. If you've not been far afield before it can seem a little extreme with the number of jabs needed, but remember they mostly last several years and it's a good excuse to go elsewhere afterwards to get your monies worth!
Have a brilliant trip.

Yes this is exactly what I would of said, certain countries it's the same jabs for every one other times it can depend on your age or your health, so that's why JY are not in a position to give out this information, so please make an appointment at your doctors to gain the correct information for you personally, you most probably will also need a prescription for malaria tablets as well, they are cheaper on line, most of the people on the tour I was on went for malerone (think that's how it's spelt) as it had the least side effects, and you need a script for an amount before you go all while your away and for a while when you come home, it's most important you take the whole cycle. The only medication I paid for was malerone and the yellow fever jab as there is document ion the doctor needs to fill in with that one. The other jabs were free.
it's a great holiday and please don't let any of the jabs etc put you off, if I can help with anything else just ask.
Cindy
