The Peru Thread

The Peru Thread

Can anyone give me advice on vaccines? I'm heading down to Peru next week on a one way ticket and I forgot about immunizations until the last minute. I already have a yellow fever one from 2013 that is good until 2023. I had a hep a from 2012 but unfortunately I forgot to get the booster 6 months later so I believe my immunity has expired. Also, got a live typhoid vaccine in 2012 which was supposed to be good for 5 years. That is likely expired now as well.

If I go to the Doctors to get these this week, they said they need me to get a "travel physical". For that plus the hepatitus a and typhoid I was quoted at between $300-$500 dollars out of pocket. That seems pretty ridiculous.

Does anyone have any experience getting these vaccines abroad for cheaper? Are they even really necessary?
