What about the vaccines they require when you go abroad? Can you get outta that?
[Aajonus]
There are only a few countries that demand that: yellow fever, like if you're going from Peru to Brazil, you have to have the yellow fever, but not really, if you quote the Geneva convention, and they can hold you up for 24 hours.
And I know many people who haven't taken the injections and still get in.

Well, I'm not gonna do that.

Cause I did the exact thing. I went to Peru and I had to come back through Brazil and they wouldn't let me in.

In Africa do they have stuff?
[Aajonus]
Only in certain countries.

And then you just don't?

And it's only the yellow fever in any country. That's the only one that they demand, but it doesn't really, if you put up a, a fuss about it. The most they'll do hold you for 24 hours.
