Travel Health Information Sheets
Before you book your trip abroad, you should be aware of health risks at your destination. Health Information Sheets on many potential risks are provided below.
- For information on the health risks in a specific country see the Country Information Pages.
The best way to ensure you are fully prepared for your trip is to visit your general practice surgery or a travel medicine clinic at least six weeks before you travel. However, it is never too late to seek advice. If you have a medical condition, you are advised to discuss the suitability of the trip before you book.
