Rabies and Travel Risk

Rabies is a serious viral infection transmitted through the saliva of infected mammals, usually following a bite, scratch or other exposure. The risk varies by destination and planned activities, so vaccination advice should be based on an individual travel-risk assessment.

Who May Be Advised to Consider Pre-Exposure Vaccination?

Pre-exposure rabies vaccination may be considered for some travellers depending on factors such as destination, access to prompt medical care, length and type of travel, and the likelihood of contact with animals. Your clinician will assess your circumstances and explain whether vaccination is appropriate.

Your Appointment

Please bring any available vaccination records and details of your itinerary. Your clinician will review relevant medical history, medicines, allergies and previous vaccine doses, then explain the recommended schedule, timing, important precautions and possible side effects for the vaccine being offered.

After a Possible Rabies Exposure

Pre-exposure vaccination does not remove the need for urgent medical advice after a possible rabies exposure. If you are bitten, scratched or otherwise potentially exposed to rabies while travelling, seek appropriate medical care promptly even if you have previously been vaccinated.

Timing Your Vaccination

The vaccination schedule and timing depend on your individual circumstances and vaccination history. Book as early as practical before travel so there is time to complete any recommended course. If departure is soon, contact us for individual advice rather than assuming it is too late.
