Vaccination

Published: 2007-09-13
Provided you intend to exotic countries, you have to count with the vaccination. This is valid for our domestic regions, of course. Nevertheless, if you have decided to travel to these countries, the consultation with a doctor or in a special medicine office is necessary.

In hospitals there are situated the „vaccination centres“ . they have the departments of travel medicine. Eventually, you can visit also special private centres. Anyway, it is better to consult more doctors as every doctor has different opinion regarding vaccination.

We recommend you not to be vaccinaned in the last moment before your trip abroad.

The vaccination materials need various time periods before they start to produce an effect.

As the vaccination requires more doses it is necessary to keep – between each dose –

the limit of 14 days.

The list of offices where the vaccinations are offered is as follows:

Attention for the vaccination before the departure ! it can occure that you will be feeling bad after puncturing, you are forced to visit a hospital instead of departure for holidays and the trip has to be postponed. This situation seems to be improbable but it happened so.

Would you choose the type of vaccination according to the country where you intend to go, in what year season it will be, and what exactly you wish to do there.

In one certain country can occure the risk of certain disease but, on the other hand, in the other country not, so it is useless to let vaccinated against something what you do not meet at all. you cannot be of the opinion that you get vaccinations against all diseases and so you will be protected against all medical problems. the vaccination is a very individual affair, depending on your health situation and other circumstances. So, would you think it over,

if you really need all types of vaccination, recommended to you by doctors. it happens quite often, however, that the doctors prescribe more vaccinations, to be out of suspicion, if someting happened to you by chance. Anyway, if you are tarvelling to whatever place, it is recommandable to be vaccinated against tetanus and jaundice.

Would you count with a fact that every matter costs something. the vaccination costs – from approx. CZK 100,- up to CZK 1500,- for 1 dose (jaundice).

You can receive also – for a small fee – the International Vaccination Certificate. you need this document for presentation at arrival to countries where certain vaccination is obliged.

(Africa – yellow fever).
