Hello ladies
I have some questions for anyone who's been to Beijing before as I'm due to go for a week when I'll be 24 weeks.
I've read conflicting information about vaccinations... some say it's a metropolitan city and if you're only going for a short time none are needed. Others have a long list of vaccinations you should have. I had loads of vaccinations when I backpacking in India a couple of years ago, so some of them would still be covering me, and I'm planning to be really careful with food and water etc... anyone with experience/advice?
Also, malaria-wise I've read there's no risk in the cities, but what about nearer the Wall and stuff? Should I just use insect repellant?
Any advice greatefully received!
Thanks xxx
