What immunizations should we get for our trip to China?

What do immunizations do?

Frequently Asked Questions About Immunizations
Vaccines work by preparing a child's body to fight illness. Each immunization contains either a dead or a weakened germ, or parts of it, that cause a particular disease. The body practices fighting the disease by making antibodies that recognize specific parts of that germ. This permanent or longstanding response means that if someone is ever exposed to the actual disease, the antibodies are already in place and the body knows how to combat it and the person doesn't get sick.

What should I pack for my trip to China?

China-Explorer frequently asked questions about China tours
The rule is to pack lightly, and bring casual clothes. A sturdy, comfortable pair of walking shoes is a necessity. A sports coat and a nice shirt for man, and one or two dresses or pantsuits for women will suit the most formal occasions to be encountered in China. Travelers should bring shirts, sweaters and jackets that can be worn in layers to suit a range of climates. Shorts (for both men and women) are fine for summer days though not recommended when visiting religious shrines.

Earlier is better as some vaccines such as Hepatitis B and Japanese Encephalitis require 3 doses and require longer intervals before travel to complete the series. Also for vaccines to be protective, your body’s immune system must produce protective antibodies in response to the vaccine. This takes about two weeks.
