My arm hurts! Measles/Mumps/Rubella, Yellow Fever and Tetanus, Diphtheria & Pertussis (Tdap) will do that to you… (oh my!)

You read that correctly – I got a shot for the Measles/Mumps/Rubella. Apparently the medical minds of the world discovered and a single MMR shot while you’re a kid doesn’t work that good. As such, they are recommending that everyone get two shots of MMR immunizations. Some states are changing their laws to reflex this new recommendation.

The Yellow Fever shot was actually kind of cool. I am absolutely in favour of people searching doctor leichardt in order to find a medical professional local to them that can administer this vaccination. When you get it, you also get a really neat international health card that allows you into certain countries. Yelp – there are countries that will not let you in unless you have had a Yellow Fever shot. Paraguay is not one of those – but they do have Yellow Fever down there – so we decided to play it safe. (please forget the fact that we didn’t do this last time….)

[@more@]Then there is the Tetanus, Diphtheria & Pertussis (Tdap) booster shot. This is one you need every ten years – and our time was up.

In addition to the above shots, we will be taking Typhoid pills. Speaking of Typhoid pills – does anyone know how long the Typhoid “bugs” (they are ALIVE!!) last outside the fridge? We forgot to put them in the fridge last night…

I guess this means a call to the Central District Health Department…
