I will be making my 3rd trip to Belize in about 2 weeks. The first time I went was in '96. I spent 3 months in the jungle of southern Belize and got a bunch of shots: hepatitus A, Gamma Globulin, etc., plus malaria pils. In '98 I went to Placencia for 10 days and didn't get any shots - nor malaria pills! (dumb). For my trip in a couple weeks (4 days on Amb. Caye and 3 days in the jungle) I got Hep. A and 6 malaria pills. The best thing to do is go to the CDC web site, read about Belize and listen to what your travel physician tells you. A day or two of discomfort from a shot is certianly better than hepatitus, malaria, etc!!!

Have Fun!!!
