Prevention of viral hepatitis.
Viral hepatitis is one of the more common potentially serious infections that may be acquired during international travel. Clinically indistinguishable syndromes may be produced by a variety of enterically and parenterally transmitted hepatitis viruses, with widely differing implications and outcomes. Most travel-related hepatitis can be prevented by a combination of sensible precautions and appropriate immunoprophylaxis.
