What does vaccination recommended mean for travelling to Samoa?

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 Samoa?

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).

" "From my first consultation with Mr. Al Gawad, I felt at ease and he explained my procedure in detail and what to expect. I am more than pleased with the outcome; had macs facelift and a neck lift. I look natural and you wouldn't know that I had surgery other than I now look 20 years younger. I had no bruising whatsoever and have to say that Mr. Al Gawad is an artist to the highest degree.He treated me so well.A very kind and understanding man.I would not hesitate in recommending him if you are looking to have surgery. You would have to go a long way to find a surgeon of his caliber. The staff at Pall Mall Medical in Newton Le Willows are fantastic. The nurses are so friendly and caring.I was well looked after. I would highly recommend Pall Mall; you would have to go a long way to find better. My experience with Pall Mall has always been to the highest standard.""
