Prior to Traveling:
Check the CDC web site to get information on the country you are going to. Read about any epidemics or outbreak in progress. Read about water and food precautions. The CDC site will also give you the immunizations you need to be up to date along with any additional vaccinations needed for that specific country. Some vaccinations need to be given weeks before departure, so don’t wait, make an appointment as soon as you know where you will be going, so that any needed vaccines may be given in the appropriate time frame.
