**well, if u've been live in the west for quite sometimes then ur immune system is not tuned in to Pakistani environment so yes Health Canada recommends u get certain important vaccinations in order to protect urself, especially if u intend to visit smaller town and villages. important ones are Typhoid, Hepatitis, and Japanese Elephantiasis. also, one must start taking malaria tablets i think 2 weeks prior to departure and continue taking during ur stay and also keep taking until 2 weeks after u return. but, its too late now, just be careful and atleaast follow 1-7 steps that i mentioned in my previous post.

iA u'll be fine. brushing teeth with tap water or swallowing water during shpwers must be avoided.**
