Do i need an injection to go thailand?


Do i need an injection to go thailand?

No you really don't need them at all unless your going to some far off area. As for Mr James B I think you need to ensure you don't miss any appointments with your angry management doctor.

unfortunetly yes unless u want Toiboid fever but u can ask for these dissolving pills that they give u

No, unless your planning to go to really remote locations. But I would check with your doctor to ensure all your shots are up to date before going.

OK Mr James your right, does that make you feel better?

Injection of what? Do you need to be immunized against any 'strange' Asian disease? No. I have traveled extensively throughout Thailand, I live and work here, as well. I have been bitten by mosquitoes, spiders, a sewer rat, and a few other creepy-crawlies.

The answer to your question is NO. To get into Thailand you do not need any type of injection. The US State department gives a list of 'recommended' immunizations (I think Typhoid and Tetanus -spelling?), but nothing is mandatory.

Don't listen to people who try to scare you with stories about disease and so on. The medical system here is far better than you might think.

Also, when you check with your doctor you "ensure"... if you want to "insure" something, check with an insurance company.

ICU - I can assure you that I do not have any ANGER management classes to attend, but thanks for concern.... and thanks for posting an accurate answer. Always helps.

to be sure, better to get immunized against Malaria, etc.

there is no malaria vaccine, but DO get the typhoid, and HEPATITIS A and B. The hepatitis shots are good for 10 years. I saw a lot of yellow eyes in thailand, yellow eyes as in liver damage from hepatitis which is quite prevalent in thailand.
