Get Immunized Before Travelling – Canadian Travel Clinics

It is estimated that nearly 1 Billion people travel by air both domestically and internationally because of the ease of the travel. Due to these facilities, there are also health risks associated with it.

Some of these risks or diseases are community-wide and many of them can be prevented by taking the right immunization or vaccinations before travelling abroad.

There are some diseases that only found in a specific area. Therefore, make sure that your basic vaccines are up to date before travelling.

Some vaccines are mandatory to take before travelling to certain parts of the world.

Basic immunizations are required in most countries. The list of vaccines includes polio, typhoid, malaria, rabies, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, etc.

The medication for malaria should also be kept in mind. As there is no vaccine available to prevent malaria at present, to immunize against malaria people should take malaria prophylaxis pills. A course of antimalarial can reduce your risk of getting this potentially fatal disease by 90%.

Certain vaccines like Yellow Fever are a regulatory requirement. When you visit a travel clinic in Calgary, the healthcare specialists will advise you on the necessary vaccinations. Ensure that you discuss this with your healthcare service provider at the travel clinic, as there are certain vaccinations that have to be taken at least a month before you travel.
