Vaccines!

Got my vaccines today! Meningitis, Yellow Fever, Polio-Tetanos-Diphteria and Hepatitis A. What's left now, is to take orally the one against Typhoid Fever. I didn't have to take the one against Hepatitis B because it is good for life and I found the proof that I already got it. I also have a prescription for Malarone, a medicine against malaria.

The cost of the vaccines... 440$! Fortunately, I have an insurance that will cover all the cost.

Vaccines appointment

Got my appointment to get the vaccines on July 18th. I saw on internet that I need to get those at least 10 days before departure, so I am fine. The problem is that I need an attestation that I have enough antibodies to not get the vaccine against Hepatitis B... So now I got to go to my doctor and pay to get the attestation so I don't have to pay for the vaccine... Aaaarrrrg!

EDIT: I received a call, my appointment has been moved to July 6th, the doctor won't be at work on the 18th.

Vaccines

I called Clinique Médicale des Voyageurs to get information : 170 CAD for the Yellow fever shot and 60 CAD for the Hepatitis A one. I checked my level of antibodies against Hepatitis B a few month ago and it's high enough. I'll have to wait to take the shots as I am currently sick. Hopefully it'll be over in a week or so.
