Shots for Africa

There is a somewhat frightening list of immunizations that you are supposed to get before a trip to Tanzania. Jenna and I went to our local clinic today to get the first round of these shots. I was really surprised to learn that they can do almost all of your immunizations with just two injections today. The last time I looked into this it was four or six and you had to come back for a booster. On Saturday we have to head to another clinic to get Yellow Fever shots, and then we are done with the shots. We will still have to take the malaria pills before, during, and after our trip. Our Doctor also prescribed three different kinds of antibiotics for our traveling pharmacy. The CDC has all the health information you need about travel to Tanzania.
