Preparing to go East - Inocculations

Your physician will check which inocculations are necessary. If he or she is unsure, check with the authority on these matters, the Tropical Institute.
Their website is http://www.itg.be. You can also go there (without appointment) for your inocculations.

What you're going to get depends on your medical history and your plans (are you going to travel around or just stick to one place). Typically you'll get most of this list :

• Tetanus
• Rabies
• Hepatitis A
• Hepatitis B
• Polio
• Typhoid
• Yellow Fever
  

Some of these are 'one shot covers all', some take two shots (with a month in between) and a third shot (6 months later) to give lifelong (or >25 years) protection. So do start in time.

Above all ... don't mess around with this, it's too important !
