Take it from me ( IN MY OPINION )
If you can prevent it - DO SO
Hep is not just a "3rd World" issue
I believe in prevention and unless YOU know (AND practice) all the RIGHT ways to avoid it , then get the vaccinationS .
Ask YOUR medical professional and YOU ensure YOU understand the pros and cons
I have had Hep - B I think - and that was in NZ acting (and in contact with) NORMAL , so I thought !
You definitely do NOT want Hep , not the illness and NOT the PERMANENT carrying of the contagiens etc in your blood (? saliva , ETC ?) for the REST OF YOUR LIFE !!!???
You should make YOUR own INTELLIGENT and INFORMED choice ......
Afterwards , enjoy Bali to the max , and especially the "BaliPeople"
