Gone But Not Forgotten
I just got back from getting all necessary vaccinations for Haiti . I guess it could be applied to most areas if a disaster hits .
Here is a list that I can remember getting . There may be a couple I missed: I believe there were 7 shots total. W.H.O. can give you the list for the country your headed to .
Hep A
Hep B
Tetanus
Yellow fever
Typhoid
H1N1
Malaria pills
Thats about $500 and Most insurance does not pay for these nor do relief agencies . Be prepared as some meds take a few days to work .Don't wait to the last minute to have these given if you know going into a disaster area ahead of time .
