On the sunny side of things, my Mauritanian colleague finally got his passport AND managed to run to the Ugandan embassy & get himself a visa -- so we're all set on that front.

You probably won't get Hep-E since I don't expect you to fetch your water from infested wells and streams. However don't tempt fate. Typhoid, diarrhea and their friends are always lurking around the corner.
Karibu Uganda!

Thanks.
Oh, I don't suspect I will get Hep E, either. Although (like a spoiled child) I really hate purifying my water. I feel like such an idiot, if I'm at somebody's house, and they offer me a drink, to reach into my bag and pull out iodine tablets... but since I'm lucky enough to be able to purify my water, I know I shouldn't complain...
u purify ur water? u r like uber kewl!
Boil your water, it shd be okay. :-)
Welcome... welcome
