Looking for health information for a specific country? Here’s where to find it.
Recognizing that travel health is an important issue, a number of health sites have improved their information over the past year. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) traded its broad region pages for new country-specific pages as part of its new release in Summer 2007. Visitors can now find content related to particular country in addition to general information on health-related issues and outbreak news.
As of September 2007, the UK-based National Travel Health Network and Center (NaTHNaC) now features country information pages meant to be used in conjunction with a pre-travel health consultation. The content includes both general health issues as well as location-specific risks.
When is the best time to look into health concerns? You’ll want to book an appointment with a travel health clinic at least six to eight weeks before your trip for vaccinations.
