When it's relevant

You are travelling overseas, particularly to Asia, Africa, South America or the Pacific, or you have a health condition and are going anywhere.

Why it's worth a visit

Some destinations carry risks that are preventable with vaccines, medicines or simple precautions, and some vaccines need weeks to take effect.

How your GP can help

Your GP reviews your itinerary and health, advises which vaccines and precautions are recommended, and prepares anything you need to carry.
