Travel Kenya - Injections

injections prior to travel to Kenya.

When you plan your trip to Kenya, you should consider getting an injection, so as not to contract any disease. Some parts of the country are more vulnerable to disease outbreaks and so you should arm yourself with the necessary injections. Areas that are more prone cities have slums like Kibera in Nairobi where it is very poor sanitation and lack of adequate water pipes that always leads to an outbreak of typhoid and cholera. We encourage you to take these injections when visiting these areas and always remember to carry water in a bottle

other injection you need to take is malaria. This is especially important when visiting highland areas of Kenya as the Rift Valley, Mount Kenya and Mount Elgon as they are few reported cases in these regions.

There are efforts the government of Kenya to try to eradicate malaria by providing free medicines and it will really help in reducing this disease.

Yellow fever is also prevalent in Kenya and what you can do to protect yourself from this is taking a yellow fever injection, which lasts in the body for a very long time and generally recommended for travelers who plan to stay at home much longer time.

is better to have a shot taken before you travel to Kenya because there is no certainty that you will get it in chemists, which will be a tour.
