Vaccinations and malaria prevention for international travel

Are you planning a trip abroad? Which vaccinations are required? Will you be at risk of malaria? Seek advice at least four to six weeks before you travel.

The website www.healthytravel.ch provides detailed information if you are planning a trip. This resource is not intended to replace a medical consultation, for example with your GP, a vaccination centre or a travel medicine specialist.

For health professionals, detailed travel medicine information and recommendations are available in the paying PRO version of www.healthytravel.ch.

Are you up to date with your vaccinations?

Take the opportunity to check whether you also need any booster vaccinations. You can find out more on the page Vaccinations and prevention.
