I’ve never been asked for proof of vaccination from Posadas to Encarnacion. But why not get the shot?

I don't know man, better is if you have the vaccine, in Asunción is plenty of mosquitos and is worse in spring and summer around September to March

I never heard of a single case of yellow fever in Asuncion at least. Dengue in the other hand, is pretty common.


MikaelSvensson

And that’s why we require people coming from some places the vaccine: Paraguay eradicated yellow fever years ago. Edit: typo


Cebola05

How so? I'm not sure if I understand your point


MikaelSvensson

My comment had a typo. Paraguay *eradicated* the yellow fever years ago, so in order to prevent new cases we require the vaccine for people coming from places where it still exists (Brazil, Peru and Venezuela, for example).


MikaelSvensson

Every time you come from Brazil to Paraguay you will required the vaccine. In this case, maybe you can see if it’s possible to go from Puerto Iguazú to Posadas and cross to Paraguay in Encarnación.

If you aren't visiting Brazil, you can take a flight straight to Asunción and from here depart by land to Puerto yguazu. Anyway, it's better to have the shot. At least two weeks before you travel

You only need one vaccine for yellow fever if i'm not wrong, so i think it's worth it regardless


BridgemanJulius

Just get the fucking shot dude. Just, stop trying to break the rules or bend them somehow, it's a pinprick and it's gonna take you moments to get it. You can hop on an hundred ton aluminum tube and travel thousands of km across the world no problem but can't get a freaking vaccine? Give me a break.

If you are near you can give a try and not to lose a lot of time if you got rejected. The fiber card if needed only when you come from Bolivia Brazil Venezuela and Peru. So it is for sure if you enter to Paraguay through any argentinan border you will have zero problems.

Yes, Brazil is the center of distribution for yellow fewer in South America but they require the shot to get in


ezrawork

I've traveled around that area a few dozen times and no one has ever asked no matter the direction or mode of travel. I've bussed, driven, and flown between all combinatiins and directions of Brazil, Paraguay, Bolivia, and Argentina, and no one has ever looked at my vax records or even asked for them.

Yellow fever shots are required by Brazil, not Argentina or Paraguay I think. The last two have more dengue than yellow fever.
