Injections

Do you mean japanese encephalitis? Both my doctor in NZ and the doctor here in Lao advised me that whilst the chances of getting it are very low in SE asia, if you do get it, the chances of dying are high, so on that basis its worth getting. Especially as it is carried by mosquitoes and there are plenty around in August.

Injections

Yes that is the one. Ok thanks for your help.

Did you have any reactions to this injection?

No reactions, apart from the shock of parting with about $200..
