in October i’ll be visiting the beautiful land that is Thailand. i’ll be going with 8 other friends of mine and we’ll be going via Hong Kong. it should be a great holiday and i’m really looking forward to this as i’ve never been to Thailand before.

going to Thailand us brits or people born in britain and not native to these climates need vacinations against certain diseases. i don’t want to take my chances out there so i was a good boy and got all my jabs done today. i had to jabs one in each arm they were for the following:
Typhoid
Hepatitis A
Diptheria
Tetnus
Polio

apparantly i need to get the Hepatitis A booster after 6 months, then i’ll be protected for 10 years.
malaria is a concern, but the nurse says that its only a real risk if i travel over the borders into Burma or go on mad trecks. if i stick to the citys and use lots of mosquito spray with “DEET” then i’ll be fine.
