You need to go to your local health department and see what the latest requirements are. Hepatitis B vaccine was recommended, as well as Yellow Fever. Both may not be necessary anymore, but, I would get both of them if I were you, especially if you were going to travel to different parts of China, or stay there a decent length of time. Also make sure that your tetanus is up to date.

It's only a four inch needle, about the size of a pencil lead, that gets stuck in your but. But, they don't stick it all the way in, only about three and a half inches. You see, if you stick it all the way in, and it breaks off in your but muscle, then, it's pretty uncomfortable for the next few years, as your body eats away at the metal. And, both shots go in one cheek, so, you always have the other one to sit on.
Not bad. Be a man, get it over with.

PS: Just kidding. They're small little tiny teensy weensy things that go in your deltoid (your upper arm). Get the hepatitis B while you're at it. Tetanus might hurt a bit, but, if you had one within the past year or so, you might not need it.

My last experience with shots was when some doctor tried to fill up a giant bag with my blood by sticking a needle in the curve of my elbow. I ended up throwing a vertical punch to his face with my free arm.
