Hmmm...that same clinic told me years ago that if I'd had the Salk Vaccine (which I did) that I did have to have a polio shot! Go figure!

Delhi, New and Old, Agra, Jaipur, Neemrama. Ate in the back alley
at Kahn Market,etc. No shots and no negative reactions to any
of the foods. The only thing that every Indian that I was intruduced
to said, was not to drink the water. Make sure that the bottle of water
was not cracked before drinking it. Common sense, even in London,
Prague or Budapest.
