    Does anybody roughly know what's the shortest amount of time you can get shots before travelling to Asia. I heard from someone that you need to get them at least 2 weeks before departing!

    This isn't a medical forum! The amound of time depends on the shots themselves. some will need longer periods than others. Ring the TMB and get a consult!

    Depends on the shots your looking for. But generally you can get most up to one day of travel except for tyhoid, the hep a + b combined, hep b standalone and yellow fever which should be around 3 weeks before hand. Ideally you should be getting them all around a month or so before hand to build up full antibodies and overcome any possible side-effects.

    But don't take any advice here as professional. Consult a doctor.
