Getting
ready
to
travel
abroad
involves
more
than
just
making
sure
you
are
up
to
date
with
your
"Vaccinations".
As
the
practice
nurse
will
only
have
time
to
advise
on
the
vaccinations
you
need
and
administer
these
we
have
made
a
list
of
useful
websites
for
you
to
access.
You
will
be
able
to
obtain
more
information
on
current
diseases
for
which
there
may
be
no
vaccine.
You
will
also
be
able
to
find
out
current
government
advice
on
travelling
in
certain
areas
of
the
world.
These
websites
also
give
you
useful
and
up
to
date
links
to
even
more
information.
Some
vaccinations
take
up
to 2
weeks
to
work.
Malaria
prophylaxis
usually
needs
to
be
started
2
weeks
before
you
depart
and
some
vaccinations
involve
a
whole
course
which
may
take
up
to 6
months
to
complete.
In
order
to
get
yourself
fully
protected
from
vaccine
preventable
diseases
we
would
recommend
that
you
make
an
appointment
with
the
nurse
at
least 8
weeks
before
your
intended
travel.
