Finland
Risk / Health Info for Finland
If you are wondering about injections to go to Finland, then your healthcare advisor at Canadian Travel Clinics can help you. If you are travelling outside of Canada, it’s recommended to update your routine immunizations, especially for measles, because there have been cases reported in Finland. Good medical care is widely available in Finland. Regardless of where you travel to, it’s always best to purchase travel medical insurance before you go abroad because provincial or territorial health plans may not cover medical costs while outside of the country. Contact your provincial or territorial health authority for more information.

top Tips for travelling to Finland
Head to the northernmost parts of the country (Finnish Lapland) to see the breath-taking Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis), although you won’t see them in the summer because it never gets dark. September to March is your best bet to see the sky show. The Midnight Sun shines from May to August. Global Affairs Canada warns that further terrorist attacks cannot be ruled out and advises caution.
