Malawi health: not a good start!

Today was `shot` day. I arranged with Passport Health in Winston-Salem to receive my vaccinations for my trip in January. I received Tetanus, Typhoid, Hepatitis A, Flu, and one other (it has escaped me at the moment!). I believe the Tetanus is what did me in, but the pain and the collection of vaccinations in the same arm made me faint in the office. After calling a friend to come get me, I returned home and proceeded to ache for the next 4 days. Be prepared when getting these shots in combination! I was lucky not to get sick from any of them, but my body was definitely hurting. What a start!

Also, I was given the name of a company that “bug proofs” your clothes for 30 washes. Definitely need to look in to that!
