On Dec 19 I visited my local public health office, (in Canada), to
discuss vaccinations for my upcoming (Jan 9) trip to Cebu. I was
fortunate enough to have an expat Filipina nurse give me my shots and
all the info I could possibly need regarding my health while in the
Philippines. (I cannot believe everything she said because she told
me there are no crocodiles in the Philippines and I later saw a
picture of one on the internet :-)
So I received Hep A and B vaccinations. A TD/Adacel for tetanus and
diphtheria. Dukoral, Oral Vaccine To Stop Travelers' Diarrhea. Oral
Typhoid vaccine. Also recommended were vaccines for Rabies and
Japanese Encephalitis but I did not have enough time for these to be
effective. I also received a recommendation to bring a Malaria
regimen but only if I planned to travel away from Cebu.
I was warned to bring effective mosquito repellent (minimum 30% Deet)
because of the Dengue fever.
So . . for those of you living in the Philippines . . what do you
think of all this?
