What are the Health Requirements to travel to Cologne, Germany?

Question

I am planning a trip to Cologne, Germany in the summer of 2007. Does anyone know what the health requirements/suggestions (immunizations, etc.) are?

thanks!!

Answer 1

Taylor, Ummmmm...Germany isn't a third world country. You can drink the water and you can interact with its people.  American Soldiers arrive there on a daily basis with little more than their childhood immunizations.  Don't fret.  ......and to all who corrected Taylor...yes it's Koln if you're on that side of the Atlantic and Cologne if you're on this side of the ocean. Just like it's Germany here and Deutschland here. Munich here. Munchen there.

Answer 2
