Yellow fever, diphtheria, typhoid and hepatitis A were recommended by
my GP, and tetanus is apparently also a good idea if you haven't had a
booster recently.

Daniel: It's also recommended that you have polio at some point and that if you're
going to some parts of brazil, that you have malaria too. I'm finding out if
we will be in that sort of area.

Steve: the nurse I spoke too said malaria was only likely to be an issue
within the Amazon rainforest. We're heading to a hotel in a large city in
the south of Brazil, so it shouldn't be needed.

Daniel: Yep, Malaria isn't an issue. You *might* want rabies if you think you'll
go walking around the town at all, since it is an issue all over Brazil. I'm not
going to bother with it.

Colin: The nurse I spoke to recommended adequate mosquito bite protection anyway,
though; at least 30% DEET (the active ingredient).

== Insurance ==

Don't leave home without it. Medical bills can be very high if you're
abroad. Swapping policy details might be a good plan before we go in
case of emergency, but not on the wiki for privacy reasons please!

Tesco will sell you a fortnight of insurance for £40 covering most everything
you would be worried about.

[http://www.norwich-union-direct.co.uk/ Norwich Union] seem to charge about £31.

= Things left to organise =

 * Booking of SESC for the days before/after the conference
 * Travel to/from Heathrow
   * For this I suggest we all end up at Steve's on Sunday 23rd -- DanielSilverstone
   * For those from outside of Cambridge, anyway. I'm going to look into getting a minibus. Also that Monday is the first day of the beer festival in Cambridge. We might get a decent lunch at least...
