Default Re: South Africa travel?

All of the above info is correct. No yellow fever vaccine needed unless you've been in another country where the disease is present. ATC, if you're going up in the Northern Provinces and to Kruger, then you should definitely take the Malarone.

Nick, definitely Typhoid, Polio, and Hep A is needed if you're not current on Hep A. On a positive note, I got the whole cocktail shot into me the day before yesterday and I'm feeling fairly good today. A little stiffness in my joints and knees (Pengy, don't be making any cracks about old chicks!) and I'm just feeling a little bit on the tired side, but that's it! Even the arms aren't hurting anymore, and I got a lot of shots at once!

I got a PM from another JC'er who is going to be there at the same time as I am. A female pilot who lurks here.......C'mon out and say hi!
