Vaccination recommendations
Check that your routine immunisations (MMR, DTP, polio, seasonal flu) are current. Hepatitis A is advised for most travellers because the virus is spread through food and water. Hepatitis B is recommended for travellers who may have medical treatment, tattoos, or sexual contact with new partners. Typhoid vaccine may be considered depending on your itinerary and eating plans; discuss with a travel-health clinician. Rabies vaccination may be considered for those who will handle animals or spend extensive time outdoors; discuss with your clinician.
