In the beginning of June we went to the travelclinic in Rotterdam for information about the vaccinations we needed to get.
The doctor advised us to get the following:
- Diphtheria/tetanus/polia (DTP)
- Typhoid
- Hepatitis A
Fortunately for us we already had most of it, we only needed to get the second boost of Hepatitis A.
A vaccination for Hepatitis B wasn't neccesary because
we carry our own needles and stuff, needed for stitches and so on. She also advised us to get a rabies vaccination but she mentioned that a wooden stick to keep an animal away will also do the trick :-) And it's
much cheaper too!
Yemen and Oman are known as malaria area, so we will need medication for that too (paludrine). She also advised us to do a test for tuberculosis to see if we have had contact with it in the
past. And of course: first see a dentist, before going on a long trip!!
