Hiya - I don't live in a dengue hotspot country but have had it (grandparent lives in a tropical country) and would like to get Dengvaxia to make it a bit less

  I'm pretty sure you can just go up to a pharmacy here in Costa Rica and get it for about 140$ - if you want I can confirm for you https://www.nacion.com/ciencia/salud/vacuna-contra-el-dengue-ya-esta-disponible-en-las-farmacias-privadas-de-costa-rica/55RQ73ZIBBB3FCIDMR2OVDLVHA/story/ https://www.nacion.com/ciencia/salud/vacuna-contra-el-dengue...

    Hi yes please that would be amazing! Some of my family is in the US so it wouldn't be too hard to drop by on the way there :)

      You want to try Farmacias Sucre out here for vaccines (I think they were the only ones I could find who did the yellow fever one), although maybe the best way to take it would be seeing a doctor to get a prescription after checking your antibody levels. Most pharmacies here have a general practitioner in there who maybe even owns the place for consultation... just look for the person in the white jacket. Chances are their English is fine. Also looks like Clinica Biblica has it for only about 88$, they're alright: https://alivioexpress.com/inicio/esp/detalle-producto.php?productoId=7681101 https://alivioexpress.com/inicio/esp/detalle-producto.php?pr...
