Do you need vaccination before coming to Borneo

Do you need vaccination before coming to Sarawak or any of the state in Borneo island?

That may be a queastion most non-Asians eg. tourists from Europe may ask as you are not familiar with the condition over here.

According to my research, here is what i found out below.

As a precaution, you may want to be vaccinated for the following diseases.

1) Hepatitis A- To see a Doctor, 2 weeks before travel

2) Hepatitis B- To see a Doctor, 3 months before travel

3) Typhoid- To see a Doctor, 10 days before travel

4) Fever- To see a Doctor, 10 days before travel

5) Influenza- To see a Doctor, 10 days before travel

6) Japanese Enchephalitis (JE)-  Sometimes required, to see a Doctor, 1 month before travel

7) Malaria, the risks are minimal

The risk of malaria varies throughout South East Asia but appropriate preventive medicines are required for more remote areas. Measures should always be taken to avoid mosquitoe bites.  such as nets and creams.

It is good to use as a checklist.
