Who let the dogs out?
Do you get the vaccine or not? It’s preference but the cost took us by suprise.
Personally I wouldn’t think of going on a long trip without getting it. Rachael visited Thailand a few years ago for two weeks and did not have the jab. However, a monkey did jump on her and it only would have taken one scratch or bite.
Here are some points to consider:
- Vaccine given at a private pharmacy.
- There are 3 doses.
- Two doses need to be a week apart.
- The third dose is a week before you travel.
- I was told you can do a fast track in the space of a week – discuss this with the pharmacy.
- Cost circulating online – £30-£40 each dose.
- Actual cost for us £49.99 (£60 was being given at most places) each dose.
- Total: £149.97
The costing could have been related to the fact there was a shortage of the vaccine.
