stevenl Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I would presume the hospitals can help you with this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketandsee Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) You talking about an addiction to Asian ladies? No vaccination for that anywhere and once caught it is incurable (and often fatal). Edited June 12, 2016 by phuketandsee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bri1guy Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016  Yellow fever can be prevented by vaccination. Travelers should also take precautions against mosquito bites when in areas with yellow fever transmission. Travelers should get vaccinated for yellow fever before visiting areas where yellow fever is found. If you continue to live or travel in yellow fever-endemic areas, you should receive a booster dose of yellow fever vaccine after 10years.The vaccine is given only at designated yellow fever vaccination centers. International regulations require proof of yellow fever vaccination for travel to and from certain countries. People who get vaccinated should be given an International Certificate of Vaccination. Also note that the vaccine is to be given at least 10 days before travel to an endemic area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarenBravo Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Had to get a Yellow Fever vaccination nine years ago, here in Phuket. It's worth checking with the hospitals, but, when I did it, they didn't stock it and couldn't order it. I had to go to the airport, see the doctor there, who ordered it and then I came back for the shot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to go to a hospital in Paris, so I would suggest a hospital here in Phuket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
