This is sobering

I just read this article off Google news.

I have to go to Gorakhpur to get to Nepal. Let me put this another way. I'm taking a train from Dehli to Gorakhpur, then walking 500m to the bus stand and possibly waiting an hour for the bus to the border! It just so happens Japanese encephalitis was the one vaccination I went off the schedule on, which the nurse told me did not guarantee the success of the vaccination. This is making me think I might fly into Nepal instead.

I then read this article which says basically children are more succeptible, it's more informative and better written.
