Health risks to international travellers are constantly changing and Australians travelling overseas should research up-to-date information and be immunised accordingly. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that all travellers be immunised against tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), measles, mumps, rubella and polio. Other vaccines might be required such as Hepatitis A/B, Typhoid, Malaria, Cholera, Influenza, Rabies etc, depending on your health status and the countries you intend to visit.
If you do not wish to have your dream holiday disrupted by a pesky preventable disease, or are unsure of your immune status, come in and see your GP today!
