Getting vaccinated in CanadaCountry forums / Canada / Canada | ||
I'm thinking about going to Havana for a week, and just read that it's suggested to be vaccinated against hepatite A and typhoid before going. Being a foreigner in Montréal, I would be very grateful if somebody could tell me where to go to get it done. Being a foreigner, I of course expect to pay for it, and would also appreciate any information on the price. Thanks in advance! | ||
In Canada we have telephone books. In the telephone book there's a section for business listings called the Yellow Pages. Look up "vaccinations" in the Yellow Pages and you'll get pile of listings for clinics that do this service. | 1 | |
Advise regarding vaccinations required and administration of the vaccinations are provided at the Travel Clinics. Canadians use and pay for theirs at these clinics. | 2 | |
Clarification - we all use these clinics redardless of citizenship. They are not restricted to Canadians. Fees are paid by all clients, including Canadians. | 3 | |
Thanks, I'll go an visit one. Any rough estimation about what the costs are? | 4 | |
Sorry no. There is the consult cost plus vaccinations. I'm in the western interior of BC. Consult ranged from $25 to $35. Vaccinations ranged from $35 to $80+. It depends on what you are already vaccinated for and the current requirements for Havanna/Cuba. Almost none of mine were covered by my Medical coverage. | 5 | |
