  1. Check with the website for the US Center for Disease Control or your national health service to see what they recommend.  Here's the CDC page on that:  http://wwwn.cdc.gov/travel/contentVaccin...    A travel medicine doctor can tell you what you need and administer the vaccinations and any prescriptions you need.

    Here is our page on health tips:  http://www.mousetourstravels.com/interna...   and our page on vaccinations:  http://www.mousetourstravels.com/interna...

    and on malaria pills in case you need those:   http://www.mousetourstravels.com/malaria...

    And don't forget to pack Pepto-Bismol.... we never leave home without it, though we do take the tablets now.  You can read what we have to say on that.... it's the best for not bringing your intestines home in a bag!   http://www.mousetourstravels.com/pepto-b...

    Happy travels... even if you don't travel the world... just remember that life is a journey... embrace and enjoy it!  http://www.mousetourstravels.com


  2. Typhoid, Tetanus, Hep A & Polio spring to mind. You'll also need malaria tablets for India.

    Check out this website  and also talk to your GP.

    Note that you may need more than one jab for each vaccine to take effect, so book your first appointment at least 6 weeks before your departure date.

  3. You should try this site. There's some good updated info

    www.travel.state.gov

    ^^good site alot info.

    Since your going to Asia Malaria for sure. India might need a yellow fever. I would get them all in shots unless your like my lil sis who doesn't like some have the pill option. I got three the typhoid, tentus since it's been over 5 or 10 yrs since my last one and a Hepatitis A some countries may need B also. Malaria pills.

    Well have a fun, safe trip. Also, remember the 3oz. rule which applies to food, and any other liquids or solids
