Hey, I know this isn't really the sort of topic for this forum, but I'm finding it difficult to find out if I need the tick-borne encephalitus vaccination. I am travelling through Slovenia and Croatia in mid June-early July, and am unsure if I need this vaccine? Or would it be ok to just avoid camping in these countries? Any advice would be really appreciated, thanx.

Hi,

as far as I know the risk for TBE in Croatia and Slovenia is not as high as here in Austria, but especially if you are planning lots of outdoor activities it might not be a bad idea if you get a vaccination. Just to be safe. :)
