blkJack Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Had your vaccinations done here in PL? Anyone know the going prices for the vaccinations suggested for living here?

It is important to get expert advice. All travellers are advised to ensure that their diphtheria, tetanus and polio vaccinations are kept up to date. A booster dose is needed if it is longer than ten years since you last had a vaccine against these diseases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Mike J Posted April 30, 2018 Forum Support Posted April 30, 2018 After multiple visits I have lived here not quite five years. Did not get any additional vaccinations prior to vacations, none prior to move, and none since I have arrived. That being said, I am due for a tetanus booster. Where was the source for the recommendations you posted? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeRulzMe Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Good topic. I visited a USA travel clinic months before my first trip here. Got vacs for Hep A&B, Typhoid and a Tetanus shot. I'm about due for another Tetanus booster myself. So time to start thinking of where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the USA most city/county/parish health clinics offer vaccinations at a very reasonable cost. Last year the Tetanus booster I got (in Florida) was only 30$; no office visit charge. Can’t help about the costs in the Phil’s, but I’d make sure I went to a reputable clinic/doctor. I’d also ask to check the vaccine first to make sure it’s from a known manufacturer and that it’s not expired or about to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
