  1. Yes, you are responsible for obtaining the recommended immunizations for travel to East Africa. Some immunization procedures must begin well in advance of travel.
    Hepatitis A and B require more than one injection, spaced six months apart. A useful website on travel health preparation is http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/destinations/list/.
    We also recommend that you discuss the requirements with your local travel medical clinic.
    Once you’ve received the necessary shots, you should travel with your international health certificate (in the US, called a yellow health card) which records your immunizations. You can be denied entry into the country if you don’t have proof of immunizations.
