Health Information Sheets
Travellers may be exposed to a range of health risks during their trip. It is essential that health professionals are aware of these risks and how to prevent them in order to provide the best advice.
The Health Information Sheets cover many non-infectious and infectious risks of importance to travellers, and contain detailed information designed for health professionals.
- For Health Information Sheets for travellers see the Travellers’ section of the site.
- For information on the health risks in a specific country see the Country Information Pages.
