Medical Examination

[TLlanos 4]

Good Morning everyone!

Here goes my situation:

I am Brazilian, currently going through the NVC process living in Rio Grande do Norte (Northern part of Brazil) but born in Sao Paulo (Down south). I moved here in the end of December of 2012 from Sao Paulo. With this move, I lost my vaccination card. I am aware that for the medical I'm supposed to present my vaccinations, so I went to a Post de Saude (Health post) here in Ponta Negra where Im living. Of the list of about 15 vaccines, I managed to get about 5 of them. Some are almost impossible to get because they are the ones you get when you are an infant. So what do I do now? Does the immigration doctor provide the missing vaccines for me? Is there a fee for them if so? Do I have to look harder here in Natal to see if I can get them? What if I can't get them all?

Amazing how something so small, in the mind of someone going through this process feels like a hurricane.

P.S: I am in perfect health

Regards!

You will only need the MMR, TdAp, confirmation of chicken pox (or vaccine) and flu in season for an adult. You do not need all the vaccines - some are only for children.

You should consult with the panel physician in your country for more information.
