Spanish term or phrase: no recogen la vacuna
This section has confused me.

Para las autoridades de inmigración de Tanzania, la vacuna de la fiebre amarilla sigue siendo obligatoria para viajeros mayores de un año, con independencia del país de origen del visitante. Se tiene que administrar 1 mes antes del viaje.

En este sentido, las Recomendaciones de Viaje de la Bristish High Commision no recogen la vacuna contra la fiebre amarilla como requisito de entrada en el país.

First of all, what is the meaning of "recoger" here?

TIA

don't include the vaccine
Explanation:
nos [9] and [10] under "recoger" in the Big Trusty Collins give "show" (mostrar) and "include" respectively.
I think it must mean that the yellow fever jab isn't included/shown as an entry requirement in the British High Commission Travel Recommendations.. [even though it should be...]

Thanks, Adam. This in fact had me flummoxed to start with - a real teaser!
However, if you have a look at this, I think you'll find that the BHC do indeed fail to mention yellow fever in the Health section.
I used to live in all those places as a kid (won't mention how long ago!), and had my fair share of yellow fever jabs - luckily it was only needed every 6 yrs..

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hi Carol - this was my interpretation. It just seemed very odd as in the preceding paragraph it is saying that for Tanzanian authorities it is obligatory. Thanks for your invaluable input as always.
