What vaccinations do i need?
You will need to consult your doctor at least 6 weeks prior to departure to enable you to have a full course of the immunisations. The following is a guideline only – you should ask your doctor if there are any changes to this list:

Polio
Tetanus
Typhoid
Hepatitis A
Meningitis

Malaria has been all but eradicated in Nepal, and is not considered a high risk.

The following may be considered optional, but some are difficult or expensive to obtain. Your doctor will let you know if they are appropriate:

Rabies If you take sensible precautions to avoid animals there is a very low risk
HepatitisB There is only a very low risk as transmission is only through sexual contact or exposure to contaminated blood, needles and syringes
T.B Children should be immunised at any age - less important for adults
Japanese Encephalitis This is a very low risk in Nepal.
