Answer 1

Yes this website tell you which ones you need:
http://www.mdtravelhealth.com/destinations/mamerica_carib/jamaica.html

Hepatitis A
Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR)
Tetanus-diphtheria

You just need to tell your nurse where your travelling to and she/he will look through your records to see if you have already had it in the 10 years.. if so, there is no need.

Have a good time, what part you going to? Im getting married in Montego Bay next year..

Answer 2

Hi

You'll need tetanus and Hepatitis A but I would also check you are up to date with Typhoid, Diptheria and Hepatitis B. Some of these come in one jab so it's not as bad as it sounds. Don't forget to check if you need to take malaria tablets as you need to start these a bit before you go. Have a great time.

Answer 3

Yes you most probably, I went to the domilican and had to have jabs.

Got to your doctors or see your nurse who will then advise you on the jabs you need, you may also need boosters done, depending on your latest ones were.

Answer 4

People, people always mislead one another
saying things which they are not certain about just spreading rumors all the time, the good book says you can be taught wise if you keep your mouth shut. all you need
is your passport a return ticket to your home land and en ought money to keep you while you are in Jamaica,

Answer 5

The NHS http://www.fitfortravel.scot.nhs.uk/ provide a free summary of what is required. However, MASTA http://www.masta.org/ provide some more detailed information for £3.99 on 10 countries.

Answer 6

Yes ! Im not sure exactly which ones but you do need jabs,
the nhs help site tells you what you need.
