      FAQs

      What vaccines do I need for my trip?

      The answer to this question will vary from location to location, so please seek advice from a professional at Whickham Pharmacy. For example, the yellow fever virus is found in tropical and subtropical areas of Africa and South America, whereas Typhoid disease is most common in non-industrialised countries such as in Asia and Eastern Europe.

      When should I consider getting vaccinated?

      We recommend that you secure pre travel advice around 6-8 weeks prior to your departure to allow enough time for full courses and travel health guidance. For example, Hepatitis A and Typhoid vaccines can take up to 2 weeks to give protective levels.

      Do travel vaccinations hurt?

      As with most injections, you may feel a mild stinging sensation when the vaccine is administered, but this will only last a few sections. The staff at Whickham Pharmacy is well experienced and trained, and will reassure you every step of the way.
