Travel

Each year millions of Americans travel to countries where diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, hepatitis A and B and typhoid fever are common. Many travelers are unaware of the health risks related to traveling in a foreign country. Cone Health provides a full array of vaccinations and information on destination-specific travel precautions, diagnosis and treatment of travel-related diseases and assistance to the traveler with chronic illness.

Travel outside the United States can prompt the creation of new experiences to treasure for a lifetime. That same memory-making trip can also mean encountering a range of health risks that demand some preparation.

What shots do I need? is not the only question you need answered to prepare for your trip. A travel medicine expert can review your specific trip itinerary and consider your personal medical and vaccination history. A visit to Cone Health s Travel Medicine experts can provide the personal service needed to prepare you for a healthy trip. The optimal time for vaccination is two to four weeks before travel. However, last minute immunization is always better than none.
