If you are planning a trip, you need to protect yourself against diseases that are more common in the city or country you are visiting. Our Travel Clinic offers the latest health information and vaccinations needed for travel outside the United States. Travel immunizations are available to adults and children older than 6 months.
Travelers should start vaccinations six to eight weeks before leaving on a trip. To be sure you receive the best protection against disease, it is important to share all your travel destinations with Travel Clinic staff. The recommended vaccines will depend on your immunization history and location of travel. The immunization nurse will review your vaccine history, as well as recommendations or required vaccines for your specific travel destination.
