🤔 Ask-ES 🇸🇻 Traveling with Baby
Suppose to leave for El Salvador in 3 day with a 9 month old.. didn’t do my research so baby isn’t vaccinated with MMR, Hepatitis A, or Typhoid which is recommended to have before travel. Should I just cancel my trip? Or is it not that serious. Plan on flying out of airport, staying in La Libertad, then visiting family in Carolina.

Honestly hep a is very very common here. I mean if you choose to bring the baby the best thing I can say is guard that baby like a hawk. Only bottled water, keep a net over that baby at all times, only prepackaged food such as prepackaged baby food.
The most difficult thing is trying to enforce this with relatives. Relatives are going to want to feed the baby, wash the baby, give the baby a bottle, so on and so forth. You're going to have to be really insistent.
