Abstract

The number of adults, children and adolescents who travel from the industrialized world to less industrialized countries for work or pleasure is steadily increasing. Travel immunizations for children are a critical element of pretrip planning. Occasionally, one of the most daunting aspects of an exotic trip or a foreign posting can be the logistics (and recriminations) associated with getting the family to a travel medicine clinic with sufficient lead time to ensure that all of the necessary immunizations are given before departure. The present paper reviews pertinent immunization information from three points of view: the travel clinic, the parent and (with license) the child.
