Are you planning a trip somewhere? Why the Typhoid shot?
My dad traveled a lot and he filled up several shot books. Going to South America, India or Africa you need some good shots to survive. I guess Hepatitis is pretty much everywhere.
When I was a kid everyone still got smallpox vaccinations. In 1971 when we moved back to from Hawaii to the mainland the Air Force decided we all needed another smallpox vaccination. Millions of tourists go to and from Hawaii every year with no smallpox vaccinations but the US Government decided we had to be vaccinate once again. It did not really "take" so I just have the one smallpox vaccination scan on my shoulder from when I was a young kid. I do remember that original vaccination had a really cool scab on my shoulder.
