What travel vaccinations does Canadian Travel Clinics provide?

For travel vaccines in Calgary, make an appointment with Canadian Travel Clinics. Our travel health centres provide a full range of vaccination and advice services, including support for anti-malarial regimes.

Cholera

The bacterial infection cholera causes vomiting and diarrhea, which can result in dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. There is an oral vaccine, Dukoral, taken in tablet form that protects against cholera for two years. Read more about vaccination against cholera.

Diphtheria, tetanus and polio

A single shot of Revaxis will boost your body’s defences against diphtheria, tetanus and polio, three dangerous diseases. You may already be protected under the Canadian vaccine schedule – but a booster may be needed every decade or so. See Canadian Travel Clinics’ vaccine pages for more information about diphtheria, tetanus and polio.

Hepatitis A

Travellers can contract hepatitis A through contaminated food and water. It causes inflammation of the liver. Canadian Travel Clinics can administer a course of hep A vaccine shots that will give 25 years of protection.

Hepatitis B

The viral liver disease hepatitis B is a risk for certain travellers. A course of the vaccine provides long-term protection from hepatitis B.

Japanese encephalitis

Anyone travelling to Southeast Asia should ask whether they are at risk from Japanese encephalitis (JE) and, if so, take steps to avoid this mosquito-borne illness. JE is a viral disease that can leave patients with neurological damage. The Japanese encephalitis vaccine provides a good degree of protection, and needs to be supported by mosquito avoidance.

Meningococcal meningitis

About 5-10% of meningococcal meningitis patients die, often within 48 hours. It affects the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. The meningococcal meningitis vaccine is given in one shot and confers immunity for five years.

Rabies

An untreated rabies infection results in death. Getting vaccinated against rabies gives you vital extra time to obtain medical help following a bite from an infected animal. The rabies vaccine will be recommended to travellers going to a country where rabies is endemic who plan to visit remote areas or work with animals.

Seek medical advice about any animal bite in a region where rabies is endemic, even if you have been vaccinated against rabies.

Tick-borne encephalitis

If you will be engaging in outdoor activities in Scandinavia, northern Asia and Eastern Europe, the nurse advisers at Canadian Travel Clinics may recommend a shot against tick-borne encephalitis (TBE). This viral illness can leave patients with permanent neurological damage.

Typhoid

Typhoid, a contagious and sometimes fatal food-borne infection, is the result of Salmonella bacteria growing in the intestines and in the blood. The typhoid shot is recommended for travellers going to parts of the world with poor sanitation. Canadian Travel Clinics can offer typhoid vaccination as a shot or an oral vaccine. It is also available in combination with the vaccine for hepatitis A, which can represent good value for money for some travellers.

Yellow fever

A shot of the vaccine Stamaril can protect against yellow fever for life. Along with your shot you will get an international certificate of yellow fever vaccination. Keep this card safe as you will need it to enter some countries. Talk to your travel health adviser to find out whether this applies to your itinerary before you leave Canada. Our travel vaccination centres in Toronto (Etobicoke) and Calgary have been designated as yellow fever vaccination centres by the public health agency of Canada.
