Yes, you need to take anti-malaria medication before and during your trip to Rwanda. The rainy season (between October and November) is a higher risk period.
You should not go gorilla trekking if you’re ill as you can infect the gorillas (they do not have immunity to our diseases).
Other than this, there is no particular vaccinations you will require, unless you have spent time in another African country that has a yellow-fever risk. You’ll be asked to present your yellow fever vaccination documents upon arrival at the airport.
