How do travel vaccines work?
expand_moreA vaccination contains a pathogen (a bacterium, virus or microorganism that can cause disease) in a weakened or killed state, stimulating the body’s adaptive immunity response. When you receive a vaccine, your immune system will start to create antibodies and memory cells to fight the ‘infection’, therefore immunising against the virus in its unweakened form.
What vaccines do I need to travel?
expand_moreEvery country has different requirements and recommended vaccinations. You should find out which vaccinations are needed for your upcoming trip and book an appointment with your GP, or a private vaccination clinic.
How long before I travel do I need vaccinations?
expand_moreAlthough the average immune response will take around 7-21 days after being vaccinated, it is important to get vaccinated at least 4-6 weeks before you travel. This is so that there is time for the vaccines to work, as well as certain vaccinations which require multiple doses that span over months.
How much do travel vaccinations cost?
expand_morePrices will depend on the travel vaccine or combination of vaccines you need for your holiday.
