Questions about travel and health?

For questions about travel or about our Web site...

  1. Looking for travel health information for a particular area of the world? Please refer to Traveler's Health Destination Information.
  2. Looking for a yellow fever vaccine clinic? Visit our national registry of official yellow fever vaccine providers.
  3. If you have other questions, you are not alone! See Travelers' Health Frequently Asked Questions.

Because Travel Medicine is a complex field, we advise consulting a travel medicine specialist or health-care provider 4–6 weeks before international travel to allow time for maximum benefit before you depart. Even if your trip is last minute, there is still benefit in consulting a travel medicine specialist.

  • See the Travel Medicine Clinics page for links to directories of private travel clinics and state health department websites (many state and county health departments also provide travel immunizations).
  • Health-care providers can contact their state epidemiologist or local health department on the [[forward label=([State Links]) link=([http://www.astho.org/index.php?template=regional_links.php])]] page of the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials.
  • For medical emergencies, contact your health-care provider or go to the nearest emergency room.
