I'm going to visit a friend of mine in Dakar in March (a child free week so as you can imagine I am very excited!). Various websites give long lists of recommended vaccinations, but as I react really badly to pretty much all medication I only want what is really necessary. My tetanus is up to date and I will take precautions against malaria as I seem to be a mozzy magnet - bearing in mind it is only a week and I will be staying in a friend's apartment I was thinking of risking the rest. Anyone have any experience/opinions? (My friend works for Oxfam and is off to the back of beyond for the next couple of weeks with no internet access so I can't ask her).
