Vaccinations
Without vaccines, preventable diseases may return, affecting people’s health and lowering quality of life as well as causing death.
Vaccination before an international trip prevents you from getting sick or coming home and spreading the disease to others.
Travel Clinic NY offers complete vaccine services to the general public and companies.
Get Vaccinated Before Your Trip
Plan your vaccination before your trip.
Be protected when traveling abroad by:
✓ Getting all required vaccines for the country you plan to visit
✓ Being up-to-date with routine vaccines that most US people get as children
Get vaccinated in advance
Plan to get vaccinated at least a month before your trip. Why?
✓ Your body needs time to develop immunity after getting a shot.
✓ You may need several doses before getting immune.
✓ Your regular doctor might have only some stock shots, so you must see a local travel clinic.
Last-minute vaccination
Many vaccines need multiple shots to get complete immunity, or it might take several weeks to develop immunity.
Talk to a travel specialty doctor, and it might still be worthwhile getting vaccinated since:
Some multi-dose vaccines can give partial protection with one dose. Some vaccines have an accelerated schedule, and doses can be given ina shorter period.
