For Fiji you need the DIO immunization booster, as I hear there will be a baaaad case of it rolling into the islands this summer...

Sorry, beeltee, I have to rib my favorite Vancouverian. I've found the Lonely Planet guidebooks always have a nice section on this. Check it out...if you can't get it at your library, just go to a bookstore and browse through it, read the info you need, and put it back on the shelf.

I did NOT just post that, did I?

You cheap bastard!!!


FYI beeltee- you don't need any vaccinations for aus or fiji. Though if you are coming from an asian country I think you have to be have the yellow fever vaccination or something like that. I don't need any thing coming from north america. Hey when are u heading to oz and fiji?
