Original post
Je pars au vietnam pendant 15 jours au mois d'août en circuit....
J'aimerai savoir si le vaccin de l'hépatite A et de la typhoîde sont vraiment conseillé car mon médecin souhaite me les faire faire.
Et combien d'argent est nécessaire là bas sachant que je pars en circuit donc tout est inclus donc se serait que pour des dépenses personnelle... Vaut mieux échanger l'argent en France ou au Vietnam.
Merci pour vos réponses

Ces vaccins ne sont pas plus conseillés au ViêtNam qu'en France🙂, surtout d'après le mode de votre voyage.

Bonjour
pour hépatite A ou B il fuat fiare en france, pour échanger d'argent le viet nam si vous avez les question et les renseignement de plus
simon.pham@yahoo.fr bon voyage
Le Vietnam est une destination peu onèreuse et si vous voyagez en organisé pas besoin de bcp de monnaie puisque presque tout sera inclus.Pour les vaccins ça ne sert à rien mais les médecins vaccinent contre tout pour se décharger en cas de soucis mais cela peut rassurer et servir même en France.Le Vietnam est noble mais c'est bruyant, sale et trop touristique.En cas de question me contacter
Voyager n'a qu'un prix, celui de l'amour de la connaissance
Dans la therie aucun vaccin n est obligatoire au VN
Le seul vac obligatoire est destinée a L afr noire et Am sud c est la fievre jaune, en raison de la difficulté de conserver ce vaccin seul des centre specialisé (air france pasteur pitie salpetriere)peut vous le faire . par contre ayant séjourné dans les pays à endémicité de f° jaune et que vous partez par la suite au vn ce vaccin devient obligatoire( car les vecteurs de f jaune (moustiques y existe)
Pour les vaccins hepatite A et typhim c est fortements conseillés car meme si vous ne consommer que l eau en bouteille les aliments ne zsont pazs lavés avec l eau en bouteille et les mains des préparateurs ne sont pas toujours exempts de facteurs contaminants ( pays endemique!!)
utiliser aquatab ou micropur pour desinfecter l eau
pour la rage ne pas caresser les toutous, car meme si vous etes vacciné, en cas de plaies ou l
morsure il faut quand meme 1 rappel
pour l encephalite japonais court séjour pas indiqué
le paludisme : zero en zone cotiere et deltas f rouge et du mekong sauf sud du delta du mekong zones urbaine peu dangereux par contre HTS plateaux et frontieres vn Cambodge VN laos et VN chine a respecter le traitement préventif
98°/o des cas palu importés en France sont d origine Africaine: tt: lariam (pas toujours supporté) ou malarone et application locale de
repulsifs conseillés : insect ecran peau, tissus et voilage (mousticaires impregnés vendus au vieux campeurs ou go sports
Enfin n oublez pas de regulariser si besoin le vaccin DTP(REVAXIS)
si sejour en chambre climatisé peu de risques .Surtout, Si sortie a la tombée de la nuit repulsifs tres indiqués: car c est le moment de sortie des anophèles femelles qui se goinfrent de sang pour avoir des forces pour la ponte nocturne attention les repulsifs peau peuvent faiire fondre les objets en plastiques par exple le cadeau d 1 etre cher!!!!
VIH pas de vaccin
Enfin pour eviter les arnaques Taxi
Preferer 3 compagnies MAI LINH, VINA ou VINASUN les chauffeurs sont cravatés taxi "METER " ca veut rien dire car le meter peuvent marcher volontairement par les chauffeurs faux taxi
Salut
Bravo pour tous tes messages qui tendent d expliquer les habitudes mauvaises ou pas ou supposées de certains qui critiquent à tort ou raison perso ou raison tout court, j ai essayé avec calme d expliquer mais certains comme l ami de nice qui prend ma réponse comme leçon de mora! !!!! ( pour defendre un pays ou tu habites)
par contre au sujet des vaccins HA et TYPHYM ou TYAVAX (association des 2 ) bien que tu n as pas tort mais ta réponse peut etre un bien mauvais conseil pour ceux qui entrent dans ce pays,
voilà les explications
En france la typhoide est bien controlée l hygiène est très (peut etre pas à 100°/°) mais ce n est pas un pays endémique le vn est endemique eau et mains sales contaminées alimentation lavée certes mais pas avec l eau en bouteille
Pour les memes raisons il existe que des cas sporadiques en été en france (brassages des populations, touristes ....)
En plus comme ce n est pas un pays endémique(france) si l on dose les anticorps des jeunes, en raison de l hygiène correcte jusqu a un age avancé ils sont plutot sero négatifs (pour l hepatite A ) et donc exposés a 1 jaunisse qui peut gacher leur voyage donc c est 1 vaccin fortement conseillé pour jeunes, a pârtir de 50 ans verifier ac anti ha si + ok si non vacciner ( peu ou pas de contre indication et très bien toléré ) mais surement sur ce point certains vont se revolter contre mes affirmations(meme si je suis professionnel de santé depuis plus de 30 ans et specialisé dans ce domaine ) c est ainsi
Pour hepatite B si risques cad voyageurs ayant l envie de connaitre les filles et sans preservatif ou en cas d accident avec transfusion urgente ou travailleurs de la santé par exple) Si pas d antecedent de maladies autoimmunes ou touchant le système immunitaire de contre indications passageres : il est consellé de la faire, la vac° HB ( qui ne protège pas contre le sida)
La rage vaut mieux eviter de caresser un toutou en cas de plaie ou griffures ou morsure meme vacciné il est indiqué de faire 1 rappel
Toujours pour la rage eviter de marcher pieds nus, les chiens enragés bavent bcoup au sol alors qu il se cachent dans l ombre, si l on a 1 petite plaie a la plante des pieds cela peut etre une porte d entrée pour le virus de la rage
C est l explication d une :Croyance populaire local : un homme mort de rage sans etre mordu est interprété par le fait qu il est victime d une morsure au niveau de son ombre peut etre actuellement on a l explication scientifique . et il n ya pas que les chiens qui transmettent la rage ( les chauves souris font aussi l affaire) Mais vu le prix du chien au VN rare sont les chiens errants ils seront vite se retrouver dans 1 marmite . maintenant pour les autres vaccin :
bien qu on est en continent dit jaune on n a pas besoin de ce vaccin sauf si l on a 1 sejour en aFR NOIRE et AM sud (pastous les pays)avant d aller au vn, à l arrivée au vn si l on controle et decouvre que vous n avez pas 1 vaccin c/f jaune de moins de 10 ans, en principe si le controle sanitaire est bien fait, vous etes ou bien refoulé (je ne sais pas s il existe 1 mise en quarantaine pour vous vacciner . explication :le meme vecteur de la maladie exite au vn mais pas le virus cela me fait penser à la dernière scene du film " LE BAL DES VAMPIRES"
Pour les autres vac selon les types de séjour durée endroit etc ....... tel ou tel vaccin sera conseillé ou non
Le Paludisme c es 1 vrai probleme car certaines région sont impaludées HAUTS PLATEAU, DELTA MEKONG surtout sud du delta frontieres vn cambodge, vn laos, vn chine, la bande cotiere et les régions urbaines ne sont pas à risque
selon les regions et la durée du séjour en raison de la toxicité on choisit selon le medecin traitant
tt preventif lariam malarone cyclines avec le cortège des eventuels effets secondaires votre med vous expliquera
traitement presomptif ou curatif surtout pour les cooperant effeta longue terme au niveau des yeux en particulieret expatriée et les moustiques vecteurs n aiment pasla climatisation! on peut a jouter les repulsiifs pas tous certains sont très efficaces d autres non piquent (femelles) a la tombée de la nuit ( sang = force pour pondre la nuit)et
le lariam peut entrainer des effets secondaires importantes hallucination à rapporter l histoire d 1 couple en voyage de noce qui a force de s engueuler, decide de divorcer et renter en france a l arrivée le medecin traitant a pensé qu a l arret
du traitement ca va s arranger ce fut le cas!!!!
bref quelques informations pour que tu aides les gens et pour ton amitié envers ce paysje ne pretends pas etre a jour sur tout d autres peut ajouter ou enlever certaines info mais de grace argumenter ou explication merci d avance
SALUT
Cest gentil de ta part de repondre a un internaute sur la necessité ou non des vaccins contre l' hepatite A et contre la typhoide
j ai le regret de te contredire ( mais sans aucune méchanceté ) que ces vaccins sont tres conseillés au vn et d autres pays endémiques (en plus de l hygiène précaire, eau non potable mains salles aliments lavés avec l eau contaminée etc....
ces vaccins Hepatite A (AVAXIM ou équivalent ) typhoide (TYPHYM VI efficacité pas à 100°/° 60 seulement
OU association des 2 TYAVAX bien tolérés pratiquement peu ou aucune Contre indication Seul inconvenient les prix élevés de ces vaccins et ils ne sont pas remboursés par la SS ( parfaitement justifié ) car pas de risque si l on reste dans l hexagone
Mais je suis surpris par les personnes qui ont PAYé leur medecins IL FAUT LEUR EXIGER UN RETOUR : 1 EXPLICATION DE LEUR MEDECIN SUR LA NECESSITE DE TEL OU TEL VACCIN çà fait partie des devoirs du medecin à moins que ces personnes ne font pas confiance à leur médecin alors changer le !!!!!
Les medecins ont accès aux données actuelles et actualisées sur ces domaines !! ils sont les mieux outillés pour répondre (en plus ce n est pas gratuit on leur paye !!!)
Sans compter qu 1 erreur de conseil peut engendrer des ennuis (6 mois de jaunisse fatigant au lieu de profiter des vacances
BRef BONS VOYAGES A TOUS !!!!
NE TRANSFORMER PAS VOTRE VOYAGE D AGREEMENT EN AVENTURE c est ce que j ai dit a mes patients

Hi there,
I’m planning a trip to Japan next year and I have asthma...
I wanted to know about the regulations regarding Ventolin (Salbutamol) in Japan—is it considered a drug? Can I bring my inhaler with me, or do I need to buy a similar product in Japan?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Hi everyone!
I have two American cousins. The older one was born in Paris, and his sister was born in California. The latter is planning a trip to Paris this summer, but she recently fell ill, and American doctors don’t know what’s wrong. I had the idea of letting her take advantage of her trip to get treated here, avoiding the high healthcare costs of the American system in the process. The problem is, I can’t find anything online about this—just testimonials from French people who used to be American, but nothing for a simple tourist.
Could you shed some light on this for me?
Thanks in advance.

We’re planning a trip to the Philippines from April 22 to May 8, 2026. Flight from Geneva with a layover in Turkey and Manila. Our itinerary: Angeles – Busuanga – Palawan…
The Philippines are a dream destination, but is it possible to travel there safely? I’ve heard that checked luggage often gets lost, tap water isn’t safe to drink, and mosquitoes are everywhere.
For water, what’s the best solution to carry in a backpack? Is a filtering water bottle 100% reliable?
For mosquitoes, should we treat our clothes with repellent? Are you vaccinated against hepatitis A, malaria, or dengue? Or is there an oral treatment to take?
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi there,
Does anyone know if there’s travel insurance for someone who’s had a heart attack?
I can’t find an insurer that covers a pre-existing condition, even if it’s stable.
Thanks so much!
Hi everyone, next month my wife, our 6-year-old daughter, and I are flying to Thailand. It’ll be a great chance to soak up some sun—something we’ve been missing lately here in France! But speaking of sun, I burn easily, and our daughter even more so. I was wondering what SPF to get for sunscreen and whether it’s better to buy it there or before we leave? Thanks for your tips!
Hello,
We’re planning to spend 3 months in Madagascar starting in mid-February.
Areas: Mahajanga, Tulear, Diego Suarez, and Sainte Marie—the order isn’t set yet. We’ll either drive for part of the trip or take flights.
We’ve heard all sorts of things about required vaccines and medications (is anti-malarial mandatory?). What’s the exact situation for travelers?
I’ll come back to you for other topics (like finding a reliable driver, among others).
Thank you.
Best wishes to you all,

We're about to go on an organized trip to South Africa, including Kruger Park. We were told that Malarone should preferably be taken in the evening at the same time during a meal. But it's hard to know what time we'll have dinner, especially since I've read that in South Africa, dinner is usually around 6 PM.
I'd love to hear from people who've been on organized trips to this destination and could share their experience. We were thinking of taking Malarone around 7:30 PM, assuming dinner would be closer to 7 PM than 6 PM. Also, if the meal ends up being earlier or later than when we take the pill, would a cookie or a piece of bread be enough to take with Malarone?
Thanks for your replies!

Hi everyone,
I’m planning to set off on a "round-the-world" trip/long journey at the start of next year, lasting between 4.5 and 6 months. For now, the itinerary looks like this: South Korea (2 weeks) -> Japan (1 month) -> New Zealand (1 month) -> Argentina (1 month) -> United States (1 month).
I’m on medication (paroxetine 20 mg/day) and was hoping to bring enough for the entire trip so I wouldn’t have to find a doctor on the spot, deal with a molecule that might be slightly different from what’s available in France, or wonder if that’s even a possibility. Basically, it seemed simpler on paper...
But after looking into the regulations for each country, it’s suddenly way less simple . Many seem to only allow the amount corresponding to the length of your "stay" in the country... Which is a problem if I arrive in Korea with 4.5 months’ worth of medication, for example.
After all that, and even though I’ll obviously contact the relevant authorities in each country (fingers crossed for a response 😛), here’s my question: Has anyone here had any experience with this? (Even if it’s a different medication or different countries, any input would be helpful!)
Thanks in advance! 😉 Ananasas

Hi there,
I’m trying to plan a trip to Dubai with my mom. I’ve seen that some of our medications require prior authorization (sleeping pills, codeine, anti-anxiety meds, etc.).
I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been in our situation. A friend of mine applied to bring her tramadol, but it was denied—though she needed high doses!
Has anyone here gone through this process? Do we *really* need a prescription in English?
Thanks

Hi,
We just found out my wife is pregnant, and we’ve planned a trip to the Barlavento Islands in Cape Verde this November.
We’d like to know if there’s a real risk of Zika contamination on those islands, because from what we’ve found online, the recorded cases are old and come from the Sotavento Islands.
We’re thinking about canceling our trip.
If you’ve recently traveled to Cape Verde or live there, do you have any thoughts on this?
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I’m starting a new discussion on this topic since there doesn’t seem to be a recent one.
I have several chronic conditions (including asthma and related ones), and I’m planning to travel for a year across different countries.
Generally, I understand it’s possible to travel with approved medications (which should be my case), but often with a limit of 3 months’ worth of treatment.
Since I’m going for 12 months, that means for three-quarters of my trip, I’d have more than 3 months’ worth of medication.
I plan to bring my prescriptions with the INN (International Nonproprietary Name), as well as the original packaging (even though it’s a nightmare, but from what I understand, it’s necessary). But I’m not sure if that’s enough...
Have any of you been in this situation before? How does it work at customs—do I need to declare everything that exceeds the 3-month limit? Do I need a letter from my doctors?
Thanks in advance for your replies,
See you soon, Bruno

Hi there,
I’ve already visited quite a few countries across several continents, but I’m pretty new to Asia.
I’m planning a trip to Thailand in October or November, and I wanted to check about health precautions: malaria treatment, vaccinations (hepatitis A or others...). I’ll mostly be in the northern region, around Chiang Mai, where I’ll spend a lot of time in nature and the mountains. Then I’ll head south to Phuket or Krabi and visit Khao Sok National Park. I’ll finish up in Bangkok, with a likely detour to Kanchanaburi.
From what I understand, for a stay of less than 60 days, I don’t need a visa (I’m a French national)? I just need to fill out the TDAC form 3 to 5 days before arrival?
Thanks for your advice! Fred

Hi there! So, I'm hesitating about taking a long trip. I'd like to go away for 2 to 3 months and travel across several continents. I’d love some advice. I often have unexplained allergies and need to follow a daily treatment for my diabetes (insulin). I think I can get authorization from my doctor to travel for 6 months with the treatment—is that correct? After those 6 months, is it possible (instead of bothering a relative to send the medication) to see a foreign doctor to get another 6-month travel authorization? How does it work at the airport? Do I need just one medication transport authorization, or do I have to request a new one in each country (once the treatment runs out) for both the flight and a DCI? Also, travel insurance doesn’t cover chronic illnesses, so will I have to pay for foreign consultations out of pocket? I’m not sure if I explained myself clearly. Oh, and just to repeat—travel insurance doesn’t cover chronic illnesses, so foreign consultations will be at my own expense? Thanks in advance for your help!
Hi everyone.
After years of traveling to the USA without any medical insurance subscriptions—and luckily never having any major health issues (though I did get a scorpion sting buried in the sand at CBSouth, 😇)—life has caught up with us, and we’re now being forced into "wisdom" and leaving our carefree days behind.
So, I’m looking for the best compromise for a 2-month health insurance plan. I’ve read the discussions on this topic, but the most recent one is from last year, and I’d love your take on the current situation. I’m familiar with the usual options like Europ Assistance and AXA, but I’ve just discovered Chapka and Heymondo (the latter seems interesting in terms of both price and coverage).
What do you think of these last two? How do they compare in terms of value for money against the bigger companies?
Thanks in advance, everyone.

Hi,
We’ve planned a 3-week trip to Bali this summer with our 7-year-old daughter. The itinerary includes Sanur, Nusa Lembongan, Sidemen, Amed, and Ubud. The more time passes, the more we read about people getting sick—some with mild to severe traveler’s diarrhea, and many ending up in the hospital. We, as parents, have been through it in Egypt with pretty bad cases, but we’d really like to avoid that for our daughter. Even though there’s no zero risk, and we’ll be careful, can any of you reassure me? Not everyone got sick, right? I’d love to hear positive feedback from parents, but not just them 😊. Thanks in advance!
Hi there...
I’m traveling with a friend for a month in November.
We booked our round-trip tickets from Paris to Phnom Penh, and yes, I know—it was a mistake. We should’ve flown out of Laos, but here we are.
But is it doable to backpack through both countries in a relaxed way?
I’ve seen that the transport takes a while...
Thanks so much for your replies.
Hi there,
I’ve started looking into getting dental implants, possibly in Costa Rica or Mexico.
Do you have any clinics to recommend or ones I should avoid?
For the next steps, I need to choose between Cuba Medika or Medigo—these are agencies that help with medical procedures. Do you have any info on either of them?
Thanks so much for your help!

For several years now, increased aggression has been observed in Cape fur seals.
At least 70 unprovoked attacks on humans.
It was recently confirmed that this is due to rabies.
The suspected origin is contamination in Namibia by jackals.
The contagion seems to be spreading.
Preventive vaccination (of the animals) is being considered.
Just a reminder:
Rabies affects all mammals.
Once symptoms appear—sometimes weeks or even months later—death is inevitable.
It’s the bite that transmits the disease.
There are so-called "furious" forms with aggression, but also forms without aggression.
In case of a bite, in addition to standard wound care, tetanus prevention… rabies prevention is essential.
Stay careful out there…
Seeing seals from a boat along the coast isn’t rare in these parts…

Hi there,
My current plan is to get my teeth treated in Cuba, especially for dental implants. Has anyone here had experience and could refer me to a good, affordable dentist? I’d really appreciate it if you could give me an idea of the price for one implant, since I need at least 6 done. Thanks so much!
