Medical form and Immunization form
Important notice:
Typhoid vaccine: It is recommended in particular for travel to smaller cities, villages and rural areas outside usual tourist routes. Typhoid is spread via fecal oral route, so the same as hep A. It may be advisable to receive this vaccine along with the other ones already outlined in the immunization form.
We strongly suggest you discuss this with your health care professional.
Immunization information is available at the MUHC's Pre-Travel Clinic or Bon Séjour Inc.
