Vaccine Prices & Information

Yellow fever is a serious viral disease transmitted by infected mosquitoes, particularly species active during the day. The virus is endemic across tropical regions of sub-Saharan Africa and South America, and vaccination is a mandatory entry requirement for a number of countries. As a registered Yellow Fever vaccination centre, Market Harborough Travel Clinic can provide the vaccine and issue the internationally recognised certificate required for travel.

Typhoid is a serious bacterial infection spread through contaminated food and water, and is one of the most commonly recommended travel vaccinations for those visiting South Asia, Africa, and parts of Latin America. Without treatment it can become life-threatening, making vaccination an important step before heading to higher-risk destinations.

Tick-Borne Encephalitis (TBE) is a serious viral infection affecting the brain and nervous system, transmitted through the bite of infected ticks in forested and rural areas across Europe and Asia. Travellers planning to walk, hike, camp, or spend time outdoors in affected regions should consider vaccination as an important precaution.

Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection that affects the nervous system, causing painful muscle stiffness and spasms that can be life-threatening. It is found worldwide and can be contracted through even a minor wound or cut, making it important for all travellers to ensure their tetanus vaccination is up to date before they travel.

Rabies is a fatal viral disease transmitted through the bite or scratch of an infected animal. It is present across much of Africa, Asia, and Latin America, and once symptoms develop it is almost always fatal. Pre-travel vaccination is strongly recommended for travellers visiting remote areas or destinations where access to prompt medical treatment may be limited.

Polio is a potentially paralysing viral disease that, while largely eradicated in most of the world, continues to circulate in a small number of countries and has seen recent outbreaks in several regions. Travellers visiting affected areas should ensure their polio vaccination is up to date before they depart.

Meningococcal disease is a potentially life-threatening bacterial infection that can cause meningitis and septicaemia. It occurs worldwide but is particularly prevalent across sub-Saharan Africa and among pilgrims travelling to Saudi Arabia for Hajj or Umrah, where vaccination is a mandatory entry requirement.

Diphtheria is a serious bacterial infection that primarily affects the throat and airways. Although rare in the UK thanks to routine childhood vaccination, it remains a risk in parts of Asia, Africa, and South America, making a booster an important consideration for travellers heading to affected regions.

Cholera is a serious bacterial disease spread through contaminated water and food. While the overall risk to travellers is low, those visiting areas with poor sanitation or limited access to clean water should be aware of the risks and take appropriate precautions before they travel.

Hepatitis A is a viral liver infection spread through contaminated food and water, and is one of the most common vaccine-preventable diseases affecting travellers. It is present in many popular holiday destinations across Africa, Asia, and Central and South America, making vaccination an important step before you travel.

Hepatitis B is a viral liver infection transmitted through blood and bodily fluids. It is widespread across much of the world, and travellers who may receive medical treatment abroad, engage in activities that carry a risk of injury, or have close contact with local populations are particularly encouraged to consider vaccination before they travel.

Japanese Encephalitis is a serious viral infection affecting the brain, transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes in rural and agricultural areas across Asia and the Far East. While the risk to most short-term travellers is low, those spending extended time outdoors or in rural regions should consider vaccination as an important precaution.
