john watson Posted December 3, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Not generally needed at all. You can go through the different countries listed on your itinerary and look at the NHS Government recommendations for each. Typically as a person on a cruise you do not immerse yourself deep into the community, jungle, marshlands etc. and mosquitoes mainly attack in the period around dusk. You can always consider taking repellent and other travellers health products. Regards John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HomelessBear Posted December 3, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Never needed anything specific for the Caribbean. Would advise that you be up to date with Tetanus though - useful not just for cruising. I personally have a flu jab too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoFlyGuy Posted December 3, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Maybe the provided tongs are the problem? Assume for a moment my hygiene hasn't been up to scratch. If I pick up say, a bread roll and take it back to my table, that is unlikely to cause others any problems. However, if I use the tongs I could well infect those following me in the buffet. Of course decent hygiene should be expected of all passengers and crew but it's not just cruise holidays where contamination can occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
