Yellow Fever Shot in Medillin

We heard there is a free injection here somewhere and we are heading to Peru and maybe Brazil soon and we are wondering if anyone knows where we can get this???

I don't know the particulars there but just had it done here in the states and had to pay at the State clinic but was still considerably less than a private clinic. I paid a little over $100 for the yellow fever immunization. Very good idea to get it. Colombia is one of the countries where you could encounter this mosquito born illness which is often fatal, at a minimum harms the liver.

In Brasil recently 7 have died from Yellow Fever.

Good luck and if you find out anything please let us know. It is good for 10 years.

It's 20K pesos ($10 USD) here. You shouldn't drink alcohol for a 5 days after getting the shot.
