A further addition: Hepatitis needs two vaccinations the second about at least three better six weeks after the first. So if you did not started *now* it's kind of late. Last week I had yellow fever vaccination because I want to go to Iguazu falls and this vaccination should have a time delay to other vaccinations of about 10 days. So if you wanted to have all the ones listed in Margas mail you should have started the procedure. Hint: Sometimes some repellant and a mosquito net are even better than a vaccination - so bging at least these if you want to go to North East Argentina.
