Immunizations for international travel.
Immunization recommendations for international travelers is a complex subject that takes into consideration the geographic destination, planned activities during travel, health conditions at destination, length of trip, and underlying health status of the traveler. The final immunization program is also determined by how much time is available before departure and the worldwide availability of vaccines and their cost. In some cases, preventive behaviors and chemoprophylaxis may protect against the risk of infection when immunizations are unavailable or unobtainable.
