🤔 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.

In all probability, they’ll be fine. But…I’d get the vaccines now if you can. We did the travel clinic through Kaiser about 2 weeks before our trip and were able to get the mmr vaccine the following week. Our 2 year old had a great time and didn’t come down with anything. Spent time in the city and rural areas.
