People are much more mobile than in the past, and there have been cases of travelers visiting other countries, and bringing otherwise “tropical” diseases back with them. I’m of the mind that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Did you think I was talking about my yellow fever vaccine? I sought it out even though it wasn’t strictly required. The doctor was speaking in general, about the sheer number of vaccinations children in CA are required to have — which he thought excessive.
