Travel Immunizations
It’s essential for you to visit your travel health physician as early as possible, before proceeding with your traveling. This is also recommended since several of the needed vaccinations require several days, or at times weeks to be fully effective.
CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) highly recommends all travelers who’re planning for an international trip, to schedule their physician’s appointment a month before they leave, or ideally 6 weeks.
Your standard travel immunizations can be started right away, at the very first scheduled travel health appointment – However, you may need additional immunization appointments to complete all the required immunizations. To make the whole process easier, your travel health appointment should be scheduled as early as possible.
