The CDC web site lists quite a number of vaccinations recommended for travel to TZ. Would members here recommend spacing these out? I am concerned with getting so many shots at one time. Has anyone had problems?

Thanks, Keith

I would space them out if at all possible. For one thing, the Hepatitus A vaccine is a two shot series that needs to be spread out (not sure what the timing is).

Yesterday I got Hep A and B, Yellow Fever and Typhoid. I was amazed at the small needles and lack of pain in the administration. No after affects at all.

I have also been told that locals in Dar require cholera vaccination. This is no longer offered in the states.

We have a one night layover in Jo'berg. Can one get the oral vacine at a medic center at the airport?

I am now told that the cholera vacinnation is only "recommended" by the PH. I'll pass.

It seems to me that to get a vacine one day prior to traveling to the area would be a wasted effort.
