Holiday in India - What vaccines are necessary??
I have heard from a good source that the vaccines which used to be compulsory 10 yrs ago are no more & numerous people have told me that it is not necessary to take any vaccines except malaria tabs.
Please help!!!

Mannie, you need to have a yellow fever vaccination if you come from an area regarded as infected – even if you just stop over in such a country. As far as I know, SA is still not regarded as one of those areas. The other vaccinations (like hepatitis, etc.) are not compulsory. Good luck.
