Information & advice on vaccinations for
travellers
Before jetting off on your next holiday or on
a business trip it is worth taking a few moments to think about the
fact that travelling around the world always brings with it certain
risks to your health.
Vaccinations are required when travelling to
certain countries – the number and type of immunisations vary from
country to country.
The UK Department of Health booklet 'Health
advice for travellers' provides information about vaccinations you
may need for different countries. Your GP should also be able to
give you advice and administer vaccinations or refer you to someone
who can.
Please contact your doctor at least six to
eight weeks prior to travelling to discuss your requirements.
More information on
health advice for travellers is available from the
Department of Health’s website.
