Ouch! That's the word to explain what's coming up for Mark and me. It's time for shots. Since we went to China, we are up-to-date on some of the recommended immunizations, but there's more to look forward to for Ethiopia.
Here's a list of what's recommended....
1. polio
2. yellow fever
3. meningitis
4. flu - (Jenny got hers yesterday)
5. typhoid
6. Hep A. - just Mark
They are also sending us with Cipro (antibiotic) and Malaria pills.
The yellow fever is only recommended if we travel outside Addis Ababa. If we choose not to do any addt'l travel, we will probably opt-out of the yellow fever. The side effects can be bad.
