So
now its time to start with the documentation work before going
on board ship and the first one which comes in the list ,as per
requirements is the yellow fever vaccination certificate. There are
lots of centres in India where u can easily get the vaccine at 300
INR ,only if you are aware of the procedure and steps. So here
I share my personal experience and some sincere suggestions for
everyone for getting the vaccine without any glitches.
Presently
there are 3 vaccination centres in Mumbai but one is at the airport
health organisation and for that you need a confirmed flight ticket.
The other one is near MMD Mumbai
and recently a new vaccination centre has come up at J.J
HOSPITAL, Mumbai. Well I
took the vaccination at the MMD centre so I will share the details
regarding that. For the newly opened centre u can contact the
hospital.
PROCEDURE
FOR GETTING THE VACCINE
Well
it is quite simple and I will discuss some points which are needed
for the vaccination .
If you are coming from nearby
states like M.P , Chattisgarh, ar any other state try to book your
tickets for the CST station , as it is easier to reach the centre
without any extra cost of taxi and auto. But in case u couldnt book
your tickets for CST ,dont worry just get any local train and reach
CST.
Now the most important point
for getting the vaccine and that is reach the centre before
6:30 a.m in the
morning. Well even 7 or 7:30 a.m is alright but to be on a safer
side reach by 6:30 a.m
once you reach there , then
just take a slight turn on left side and at the entry of NAV BHAWAN
you will see few people waiting .just ask them for the page
where you have to mention your name , passport no. And positively if
you reach there by 6 – 6:30 a.m u will be around 20-30 in the
serial no. This
difference comes because there are lots of agents who write the name
for you if u cant reach there early.
Now once you have written the
name and passport no , u are free to roam around for a while around
that place for some time, but try to be there till 8-8:30 a.m , as
people around you must see you so that while making the queue they
dont create any problem. Get some fresh sugarcane juice, newspaper
or do timepass till 9:30 a.m.
After
9:30 the office will be opened and the guy who works inside will
give you a small briefing, i.e
keep 300 cash (change) ,passport (original), a pen for filling the
certificate.
There will be someone who
will volunteer you to form the queue as per the name written on the
page. Dont allow any one to get in between. Now at sharp 10 a.m you
will be allowed to go inside only after showing your original
passport to the person in charge.
When you go inside the doctor
will tell you about when and under what conditions you cannot take
the vaccine. The 2 guys inside will give you the certificate, fill
all the details on the certificate as per your passport. There are
samples also pasted there . Ask the person , he will get irritated
at once but its better to ask him or else ask someone sitting next
to you if you have any doubt.
Once the certificates are
filled they will start sending you inside the room where you will
get the vaccine, before that you will give 300 cash to the person in
charge and get your receipt and certificate stamped from him.
