Background to travel support
Interest in travel has seen a rise in recent months as the public’s desire to travel again post-pandemic increases. For over 10 years now community pharmacists have been routinely vaccinating against influenza and more recently COVID-19 – with a growing skillset in development, travel vaccinations are a logical next step.
With travel however, vaccinations are just one component, a requirement for an in-depth travel health assessment is essential and community pharmacists are perfectly placed to provide this advice.
