Do I need those vacinations if I'm only going for a couple of weeks?
If I had one or more vacinations, but don't know for sure, is there any possible side effect from repeat vacinations?

The mentioned vacinations are not travel related and should be done anyway.
Israel: Immunisation against typhoid and poliomylitis is occasionally recommended.
No vacination is required for traveling to Israel
Because Israel has a great health care system you can get a tetanus vacinations if it's necessary.
If you received a measles vacination before - it should provide you with a lifelong immunity
When ever you receive a vacination side effects can occur. In this forum nobody will be able and authorized to tell what might the side effects with you. Talk to your doc about your concerns.
But - going to Israel for a couple of weeks, there is nothing to worry about regarding your health. Just drink only bottled water and wash your hands regulary.
Take care

Canada. greater Israeli spies have been booted out of the US than Canadian spies. Israel gets around $a million money of loose help and protection stress equipment from the US a 12 months - Canada none. Israel has fee the united statesa. taxpayer greater interior the 50 years that's been created than the Canadians have of their life. Israel is the only Bolshevik apartheid state interior the worldwide that has dedicated greater warfare crimes than latest-day-day dictators in accordance to the UN. Canada is an open democracy. The Canadians evaluate the US a Christian best buddy. The Israelis evaluate the US a deformed goy Minotaur dancing and murdering to their track.

You might want to consider a hepatitis A+B vaccination, as it is somewhat common in the Mediteranean area. Also, meningitis is a good vaccine in general, not connected to Israel. There are no required vaccines to come to Israel, and no dangerous diseases that you need to worry about that doesn't exist in Canada as well. Furthermore, Israel has embraced western medicine, and Israeli doctors are well qualified.
You can drink tap water, just be warned that the chemical/mineral make-up is somewhat different from that of Canada, so your digestive track may take some time to adjust. It would be easier to stick to bottled water, but the water in Israel is perfectly safe for consumption. You should probably wash your hands to the same degree you would wash them in Canada.

Israel is a western developed country. I dont think you need any special vaccination unless your doc recommend you. If you ask me as a citizen here I would recommend you to consume mineral water if you get to Tel Aviv and it's area. The other places are O.k. Dont forget hat and skin guard...

Their are no required vaccinations to go to Israel.
I do know when I was going their as a student for several months I was recommended and received a hepatitis shot, but that is about it.

Whatever vaccinations you need in Canada, you also need in Israel. Nothing besides that.
