travel vaccinations?

You don't say where your going, if Thailand you really don't need additional injections, but your hep a & b should be up to date no matter if your traveling or not. Also, I have no idea what nhs is it a Thai company? Since you posted it in a Thailand section would be nice to know.

My Hep A shots were $25US (which I think is close to 11 pounds) in Bangkok so I don't think the National Health Service is going to gouge you on the prices for the Hep A and B or the Tetanus. Many of the shots you need you've probably already had in school you might try to get a hold of your records or ask your mum.

I agree with the above but I know the Hep shot are a series or two or three at 3 or 6 month intervals. However once you've had the initial shot your fairly well protected.

The Hep A vaccine should be given at least four weeks prior to departure in order for antibody titers to rise to sufficient levels to confer immunity. (A single dose of hepatitis A vaccine given 2-4 weeks before departure, though not optimal, probably provides adequate protection in most cases.) A booster dose should be given 6-12 months later to provide long-term immunity. Two doses of hepatitis A vaccine appear to confer protection for at least ten years. Hep B vaccine is lifelong protection.

Seeing as you are posting this on the Thai section assume you are coming to Thailand.

If staying the tourist areas of Thailand, BKK, Pattaya, Koh Samui, Phuket etc...dont really need the jabs for these places in Thailand.

If travelling to remote areas would be a good idea....other thing to consider is that there are cases of Dengue fever in Thailand so bring good mozzie repellent, at least 50% deet at the active ingredient.

Also bring some charcoal tablets and anti-biotics in case of a bad stomache or case of food posioning

EDIT.

Khun Bob...the NHS is the national health service in the UK...its the "free" goverment medical service in the UK

Try the foreign office website for advice on what you need its much better than the NHS one. http://www.fco.gov.uk/en/travelling-and-living-ove... With regard to payment unfortunatley all different trusts charge differently e.g. in Scotland as of next year all prescriptions will be free but hey won;t in england. I have found howevr that they are normally around £11 each. Call up your GP and they can advise you. DIfferent surgeries in your area will all charge the same though only be if you travel to a different county that this will later or if you go private but that tends to cost more. Get them done sooner ratehr than later though becuase you need at least 6 weeks for them to be effective before travel. also if i were you i'd take malaria tablets with me in case or a plug in mosqutio repellent for your room at night.
