Emergency & Health in Vietnam
Tap water safety
Tap water should be avoided, even if it is marked as 'filtered and sterilised'. Drink bottled water with the seal intact.
Avoid having ice put in your drinks, except in large international hotels where it is usually safe.
Medical
No vaccinations required. Malaria prophylaxis no longer considered essential.
Innoculation against typhoid, tetanus, hepatitis A & B is strongly recommended, together with full medical insurance, including evacuation by air.
