Are there any suggestions to any types of preventitive vaccines if any that would be of benifit in these longer OW swims? The bodies of water that I enter are not all bad...Lake Mich, finger lakes, Lake Erie, Potomac. As endurance atletes we are already a little bit immuno compromised. Plus, my insurance is changing and figured I would get caught up before the end of the year if possible. Thanks.

I`m in the process of swimming around all of the piers on the Calif. coast and I started on the Mexican Border swimming around the Imperial Beach Pier . I.B. is next to the Tijuana Estuary,..its a toilet. I ask my Doctor if I needed any shots. She said that since I had a hep. shot in the army 35 years ago, and a tetanus shot last year, I was good to go.
