Travelling to KL, KK and Sandakan in August. For people who have travelled to Borneo, which vaccinations did you consider a must and actually get? Asking as we checked with the GP and the list is so long; typhoid, malaria, Hep A, tetanus, diptheria etc. Overall, we are not keen on extra vaccinations. Are these absolutely essential? We don’t have any underlying medical issues, but since Covid, feel that we are getting respiratory illnesses a lot more (like 2-3 times a year). Just not sure if we wish to pump ourselves and our teenage kids with so many vsccinations though. I am more worried about dengue in that region! Any thoughts appreciated.
