Vaccination

Although China is not the "third world" and medical care is similar to that in Europe, I'll be straying out of the big cities at various points on the trip, so my poor little European immune system needs a bit of help.

Four injections: hepatitis A and B, typhoid, meningitis; anti-malaria tablets; mosquito spray. I've added various other pills and lotions to my first aid kit.

I'm going to take a chance on not getting bitten by a rabid dog as the rabies vaccine takes four injections over four weeks, and of course I left it too late.
