What are travel vaccinations?
Like all vaccines, travel vaccinations are designed to help you avoid illnesses and health risks while you travel. Some international traveling, especially traveling to a developing country, poses potential health risks to you. These risks vary depending on the region where you are traveling, activities you partake in, your medical history, and your general health. Most developed countries are fortunate enough to have regular vaccinations, which makes many serious diseases uncommon or rare. In developing countries, however, there is often a higher risk of disease due to irregular vaccinations. It is important to properly plan your trip and vaccinations to ensure your health and wellbeing.
