The list of shots required for travelling in Mauritania is endless.  My arms and arse are littered with puncture wounds and there is a stampede of antibodies charging around my system.

We need to show the yellow international immunisation card at the border, and there is a significant focus on compliance since the Ebola outbreak.  A little bizarre, seeing as an Ebola vaccination is not required on the immunisation card for entry to Mauritania.
