starfire Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 All: Visitor in town is in need of a Yellow Fever vaccine. Willing to travel to any facility in the Lakeside community. Any thoughts out there on a confirmed clinic or other medical facility with a vaccine in stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted September 27, 2022 Report Share Posted September 27, 2022 Years ago, having suffered a serious hand injury (stitches required), AJijic Clinic sent me across the street to Famacia Guadalajara to buy the tetanus vaccine (IMSS didn''t have any) .... and return to have the injection. These days can't know, but might be worth checking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomgates Posted September 28, 2022 Report Share Posted September 28, 2022 A Google search provided this info: People age 60 and above should not have this vaccine because the side effects can be severe and the chance of getting yellow fever are extremely low. We lived there 12 years and never knew anyone who contacted it or heard about anyone contracting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People do travel to places where Yellow Fever is a real risk. Not everyone who posts on this board is over 60. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they are over 60, it is up to them to make the decision regarding their health care choices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
