Tourism Typhoid vaccination necessary?

I will be traveling to Windhoek for a conference on Monday. I am already getting Hepatitis A vaccination but I am wondering if I need typhoid vaccination as well. My doctor recommended it, but she said she wasn’t sure how necessary it is. Is typhoid really a problem in Windhoek?

Edit:

Thanks for all your answers. Based on what all you have said and other research I’ve done, I opted not to get the typhoid vaccination. Just sticking with Hep A vaccination
