Abstract

The following regional guide for vaccinations is a generalization of what may be required for vaccine-preventable disease travel to the region only. Each vaccination should be recommended by the travel health professional only after a full risk assessment as to its actual need for an individual traveller. It is important to note that not all vaccinations suggested in the regions will necessarily be advised or required.
