Visas: All visitors to Equatorial Guinea
require a visa, which is usually valid for 30 days. In Africa, the easiest places to get a
visa are Cameroon and Gabon, though it's not very difficult anywhere with same-day service
the norm. Health risks: You will require immunizations (and, often, proof of this) against
yellow fever, cholera, tetanus, typhoid, meningitis, polio and hepatitis A. You'll also
need to guard against giardia, dysentry, fungal infections, rabies, tuberculosis,
bilharzia, diptheria, malaria, typhus and a whole textbook of other water-, insect- and
air-borne diseases.
