Chad
Chad is a landlocked country in Central Africa that offers a unique and authentic travel experience for adventurous tourists. The country is home to a diverse range of landscapes, including the Sahara Desert, lush forests, and the stunning Lake Chad. Visitors can explore the vibrant markets and traditional villages, witness the ancient rock art at the Ennedi Plateau, and go on safari to see the abundant wildlife, including elephants, lions, and giraffes. Chad also has a rich cultural heritage, with fascinating museums and historical sites, such as the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Wadi al-Hayat Cemetery. Despite its challenges, Chad is a welcoming and hospitable country that offers a truly unforgettable travel experience.
Chad Immunization Recommendations and Requirements
Before traveling, make sure you are up-to-date on all of your routine immunizations including influenza and COVID-19. Note that many vaccines that are now considered "routine" were not available until recent decades so you may not have received them at all, depending on your age and other factors.
Infants, 6 to 11 months old should receive one dose of MMR and Hepatitis A prior to visiting Chad. This does not count toward routine childhood immunizations.
