ok. i'd like to to ask the advice of anyone who is v knowledgeable about immunisations. i've decided not to give my dds aged 2.5 and 5 any jabs, for various reasons.
anyway, we are going to morocco in march, for a family wedding. i've been looking at travel health websites and would like to know how i assess the risk of things like TB etc, which are mentioned on the site, but there is no actual requirement to be immunised?
i dont want to have a debate about whether its wrong not to immunise, so no lectures please - but would be glad of any advice about weighing up risk factors, as i would possibly consider one or 2 jabs, if i felt it was really vital.
this immunisation business to me, is largely to do with how i percieve risks- the risk of immunising, vs the risk of not...So how do i find out which, if any diseases in morocco pose a really significant risk?
