Travel-related vaccines.

Author: WilsonM E

Journal ArticleAn article published in an academic or professional journal that reports original research or scholarly analysis.
ReviewAn article that critically examines existing research on a particular topic and summarizes the current state of knowledge in the field.

Overview

Travelers are at increased risk for several infections, including familiar infections such as measles that are widely distributed but more common in developing countries. Vaccines can markedly decrease the risk for many of these infections and are an important part of pretravel preparation. Recent reports of severe adverse events in elderly persons who have received yellow fever vaccine are a reminder that widely used, old vaccines can have unexpected side effects when used in a new population. It is biologically plausible that adverse effects might be more common in the elderly, and epidemiologically plausible that occasional instances of similar adverse events in the past could have been missed. Studies on special and travel vaccines in the elderly are needed urgently to define how these vaccines should be used in older populations and whether alternative means for protection are needed.
