What does vaccination recommended mean for travelling to Senegal?

While it isn't a requirement to pass border control and customs when you enter the country, given the presence of the particular disease in the country, you may want to protect yourself from the risk of contracting an illness while you visit. Being protected is better than becoming ill while abroad.

Also depending upon your plans for your destination and your accommodation plans, you may benefit from a vaccination as a preventative measure.

For example, if you intend to visit local farms, isolated sections, intend to stay outside of a hotel environment, you may benefit from the protection of a vaccination as your risk of contracting certain diseases and illnesses increases.

What does 'sometimes recommended' mean for travelling to Senegal?

If you have travelled from an area where a particular vaccination was required, you may require that vaccination for your next destination also (eg, Yellow Fever when travelling from a previous Yellow Fever area).

" "Mr El Gawad is a credit to his profession, I would highly recommend him for any cosmetic surgery. From first initial contact personal telephone call from him too my first meeting I was put at ease. My first consultation 20 minutes was free. I had done a lot of research about a breast lift and had thought of a tummy tuck after meeting him and deciding that I was certain this was for me. 20 years of stretch marks and saggy bust. I thought the price was very good for the surgery and aftercare. I am amazed at the results my scars are fantastic after only 5 months. My husband was very nervous after seeing pictures on the internet and he is very happy with the results. The staff at Pall Mall are fantastic and the care you receive is brilliant. Mr El Gawad thank you for your care! He even rang me at home several times after to check on me & how I was and the nurse visited me at home to remove drains and check on me plus daily phone calls. You will not be disappointed. My next review with him is after 6 months the after care is being great. I would recommend him to my family and friends Excellent I was very nervous but Mr El Gawad put me at ease and was available before and after with any queries. You will not be disappointed!""

" "I would defiantly recommend to anyone" "Following 3 complicated pregnancies resulting in emergency c sections, i was left with a rather large and unsightly overhang as well as a poorly positioned and raised scar. I made the choice to act on it and came across mr gawad online. From the moment i met him in manchester i knew he was the right person for the job. He advised me i would require a full tummy tuck and muscle repair as well as liposuction to improve my contour. I trusted his judgement. He is so approachable and caring, he put me at rest immediately and that was true also yesterday when i had my procedure. Only 1 day post op and the results are astounding. I feel great in myself too with minimal tenderness due to the liposuction. I genuinely can't praise this man enough and would defiantly recommend to anyone." "
