Risk / Health Info for Romania
Canadian Travel Clinics can help you work out what immunizations you need to go to Romania. Before travelling to Romania, be sure to have up-to-date vaccines, especially for measles as there have been reported cases in the country. It is also highly recommended that you purchase travel health insurance before you leave Canada because provincial or territorial health plans may not cover medical costs while you’re in Romania. Contact your provincial or territorial health authority for more information. It is best to practise safe water and food precautions in Romania and take precautions against bug bites. Medical facilities and services in Romania do not meet Canadian standards, although private clinics in cities are generally better equipped than public facilities. Consider carrying a travel health kit.
- Altitude in Romania
- Parts of Romania are higher than 2,400m, and travellers planning to spend time at a high altitude should take steps to protect themselves against the potentially life-threatening acute mountain sickness. Your healthcare provider can help with this.
