They have pills to prevent malaria. They mess up your liver.

ask your primary doctor if you need any vaccinations.

Hey - I live in Vietnam now for 3 years and I don't eat Malaria pills every day!
Malaria is only "available" in the Mekong Region, but still, if you use the lotion against Mosquitos you should be fine.
If you should get a sudden fiever after visiting the Mekong Region, you should see a doctor immediately.
And, don't worry, f.e. the Franco-Vietnamese-Hospitals in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City a really good.
The most important shots are Hepatitis A + B, there are also combination shots on the market, kind of "2 in 1"
Thypus?
Well, if you plan a trekking tour through the mountains with drinking puddle water - yes.
Yellow fiever?
No!

So, don't panic - enjoy your stay!!!

I think you do need malaria pills, and maybe some vaccinations. Here is the Center for Diseae Control's website for recommended vaccinations for Southeast Asia: http://www.cdc.gov/travel/seasia.htm#vaccines And here's their page on Malaria: http://www.cdc.gov/malaria/index.htm and http://www.cdc.gov/malaria/distribution_epi/distribution.htm

Here's page pm Malaria Pills: http://www.mousetourstravels.com/malaria.html It always pays to be cautious. It's good to check with a travel medicine doctor too.

Happy travels!

I was in Vietnam (Hanoi, Halong Bay, Nha Trang Mui Ne and Ho Chin Minh City) a few months ago. Don't think malaria pills are needed. Insect repellent would be sufficient unless you plan to take some offbeaten track somewhere. (But I don't remember getting any mosquito bites even though I was in shorts)

A Hep A vaccination would be useful perhaps. The doctors I saw recommended it.

Hope this helps
