Yellow Fever
 
I have received some conflicting information on yellow fever vaccination. I read a vaccine is required if we travel into Botswana from a yellow fever country.
We fly from USA to Johannesburg, South Africa and fly to Victoria Falls and then into Botswana. Would I need a yellow fever card if my travels encompasses
these countries. I am thinking no but not confident of this, thanks!

I’m not an expert, but none of those countries are yellow fever endemic:

Earlier this year, we went from USA--> RSA --> VF (Zim & Zam) --> Bots --> RSA. None of the 4 countries (RSA, Zim, Zam, Bots) asked for YF cards.
