Please check out the Center for disease control and click on travel medicine. Tetanus and pertussis is always a good idea. Must check with the CDC/Central Africa.

Yes, some vaccines are recommended or required for Central African Republic. The CDC and WHO recommend the following vaccines for Central African Republic: typhoid, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, cholera, yellow fever, rabies, meningitis, and influenza.

Or search other countries as you need.

Oh yes. See your family physician about everything you need. They have updated requirements.
