Cost of Vaccines
This is our first visit to Africa so the whole vaccine thing is new to us. I checked with a local Travel Clinic (Jacksonville, FL) that was recommended by my primary physician to get the details on the recommended vaccines for Tanzania and Kenya as well as the related costs. Obviously these may vary by vendor/area in the US:
Hepatitis A shot $120
Typhoid shot $220
Tetanus $80
Yellow Fever shot $340
Fortunately my health insurance covers the Hep A and Typhoid which was administered at a local CVS pharmacy.
We both have had the Tetanus shots within the past 10 years so no problem there.
The Yellow Fever shot is not available except for the JAX Travel Clinic.
While all these shots may not be required, we decided to play it safe.
