Changes in Country Requirements for Yellow Fever Vaccination2012


Certain countries have yellow fever (YF) vaccination requirements for people who are entering their country after travel from a country with risk of YF virus transmission. The World Health Organization has recently published changes to some countries’ yellow fever vaccination requirements. Many of these changes involve new guidance that YF vaccination is also required for people who are only transiting (making a brief stop or layover) in an airport located in a country with risk of YF virus transmission as part of their route to their final destination.
Updated the information about YF vaccination requirements is available at CDC WEBSITE

HAJJ TRAVEL


This year the Hajj,  the pilgrimage to Mecca and the largest annual gathering in the world, will take place from October 24th  to 29th.  It is estimated that over 3 million Muslims are planning to participate in the upcoming Hajj.
Travelers are advised to plan ahead and see a travel health specialist at least 6 weeks prior to departure.  Because of the large number of people gathering there is an increased risk for certain infectious diseases such as influenza, tuberculosis, meningococcal disease and gastrointestinal infections.  Furthermore, Saudi Arabia requires proof of certain vaccines when entering the country.
Last year we saw a record number of Hajj travellers receive their required Hajj vaccinations at our clinic .  This year, we are happy to offer pilgrims a Hajj special.
Please call  09873691351 to find out more about our special Hajj rates or to make an appointment for your vaccinations. At ITVC,  your travel health experts are up-to-date on the latest requirements and we carry the meningococcal vaccine required for entry into Saudia Arabia.
  However, as in years past, pilgrims will most likely need:
  • Proof of Meningococcal Vaccine:  vaccine needs to be given no less than 10 days and no more than three years before arrival in Saudi Arabia.  All adults and children over two years of age must be vaccinated with the meningococcal quadrivalent vaccine (serogroups A,C, Y and W135).  Routine childhood meningococcal vaccine generally used in INDIA  is NOT sufficient for entry.
  • Flu Vaccine is highly recommended
  • Routine childhood vaccinations should be up-to-date
  • Also recommended are vaccinations against Hepatitis A and B, Measles, Mumps, Rubella and Typhoid Fever (available at TMVC with a travel consult).
  • Depending on your point of departure, you may also need to show proof of Yellow Fever and Polio vaccinations.
