Tips and Advice

Australia is one of the safest countries in the world to travel around. You are unlikely to pick up a travel related disease while travelling here but that is not the case for many other regions in the world. High risk areas include many parts of Asia, Africa, and South America. As usual, prevention is generally better than the cure so we recommend discussing your travel plans with your doctor well in advance of your departure date. Your doctor can suggest preventative measures such as getting travel vaccinations, avoiding mosquitos, and reducing the risk of drinking contaminated water. Diseases which you can be vaccinated against include:

• Hepatitis A
• Hepatitis B
• Cholera
• Japanese Encephalitis
• Rabies
• Typhoid Fever
• Yellow Fever

Before you travel, speak to your doctor about travel vaccinations which may be required.
