SO. AFRICA JUNE 8 TRIP

WE WILL GO TO CAPETOWN AND JOHANNASBURG AND SAFARI OUTSIDE OF KRUGER. OUR STATE DEPT IS TELLING US TO TAKE HEP A AND B, POLIO, TETNUS WHICH I CAN UNDERSTAND --- BUT THEY ALSO SAY (BESIDES THE MALARIA PILLS, OF COURSE) TO TAKE MENINGITUS AND TYPHOID. DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THESE ARE REALLY NECESSARY????

I'm sure you'd get plenty of answers here - if S. Africa were in Europe. As it's not, definitely post on the Africa board.

Also, so you know, posting in all caps is considered shouting on the internet. When you post over there, I know it would be appreciated if you turned off the caps lock key if that's possible.

You might want to post this on the Africa/Mid East board to get the appropriate response.

Please don't use all CAPS in your post -- some people consider it SHOUTING and may ignore your post.

Good Luck!

My son took all of those meds and more when he went to India for 3 months.
I think the thinking goes - Better Safe Than Sorry.
Now off to the Africa boards!
