When do I need a vaccination?

Joel Widzer (Travel Strategist) gives expert video advice on: How do I pack prescription drugs when I travel?; Should my prescription drugs go in my checked luggage or my carry on?; Should I bring extra prescription drugs with me on my long vacation? and more...

When you want to consider getting a vaccination is when you're travelling to areas that maybe you haven't travelled to before, or areas that are not as developed as we might find in the U.S. or in parts of Europe. And this can include areas in Africa, areas in Asia, some of the areas in Eastern Africa, and basically you want to make sure that you're immune to places where they have such things as yellow fever, malaria, measles, and mumps. So you want to make sure that you're well protected against those types of diseases.
