Typhoid is a bacterial infection that can cause you to become seriously unwell. It’s highly contagious, but thankfully isn’t common in the UK at all.

People looking for a typhoid jab are usually travelling to a foreign country where rates of the infection are higher and they’re more likely to come into contact with the bacteria that causes it.

Luckily, a vaccine is readily available for those who’ve planned a trip to a Typhoid risk-area to help keep them as healthy as possible through their holiday.

Typhoid travel jab

Most cases of Typhoid are reported in Asia, and countries like Bangladesh, India and Pakistan. However, other parts of the world are also affected, like the continent of Africa and some parts of Central and South America.

If you’re travelling to any of these areas, please book a consultation with one of our Travel Health practitioners who’ll be able to advise you on which vaccines you’ll need before you go.

As soon as your trip is booked, you should start looking at your vaccine schedule to see when you’ll need to come in for your Typhoid injection. In most cases, we recommend patients have their jab at least one month before they fly to give them chance to be fully protected.However, if your trip has been planned more last minute, we may still be able to accommodate you. It’s always best to have a late injection than none at all, so get in touch as soon as you know your departure date and we’ll advise you on when’s best to come in.

Most typhoid jabs protect you for around 3 years. If you’re flying to an at-risk area and your last Typhoid injection was over 35 months ago, please get in touch to book a booster so you can stay healthy on holiday.

If you’ve not been able to get your typhoid jab a month before you depart, we’re able to help with short-notice appointments, though please note the sooner you have it before you fly, the better.As an affordable healthcare clinic, we’re able to offer our patients a range of appointments without a waiting list, so things like travel vaccines are easier to arrange when you’re working on a tight schedule.

A single Typhoid vaccine at our travel clinic costs £, but if you decide to book more than one injection with us, you could save up to % off your total appointment price.
