Travel Vaccinations and How They Work
Travel vaccinations are crucial because they protect you from pathogens in exotic locations that your body may not naturally defend against. Without immunity, you risk severe or potentially fatal diseases like Hepatitis A or Yellow Fever. Vaccines work by introducing a solution that mimics the disease pathogen, prompting your immune system to produce specific antibodies. These antibodies help your body fight off the actual disease if exposed. To ensure maximum protection, ideally, you should receive vaccinations at least 21 days before travelling, though some vaccines, like Rabies, may require more time.
Our Travel Services
One of the core services of our Travel Clinic is the administration of travel vaccinations and immunisations. Different destinations require different vaccines, and we ensure that you receive the appropriate immunisations based on your travel itinerary and health history. Our vaccinations include:
Routine Vaccinations: These include essential vaccines such as Hepatitis A and B, Typhoid, and Tetanus, which are recommended for many travel destinations.
Destination-Specific Vaccines: Depending on your destination, you might need additional vaccines like Yellow Fever, Japanese Encephalitis, or Rabies. Our Travel Clinic provides these vaccines, ensuring you meet all entry requirements for your destination.
Travel Health Kits: We also offer travel health kits containing necessary items such as mosquito repellents, anti-diarrhoeal medications, and first-aid supplies to keep you prepared for any minor health issues during your trip.
