Getting vaccinated for Hepatitis A:

Before you go on your travels, book an appointment with our travel experts to discuss the need for a vaccine. Vaccinations are more effective if they are administered 2-3 weeks in advance of your departure. This should be followed by a second injection 6 to 12 months later. Moreover, the vaccine can be given on short notice if required.

If the vaccine is not administered, Hepatitis A infection can last upwards of 2-4 months. In severe cases, 1 in 250 people may develop eventual liver failure which can be life-threatening.

There is currently no known cure for Hepatitis A. If contracted, symptoms will naturally get better after a couple of months with the right amount of rest and recuperation. Vaccination is therefore highly recommended to avoid
contraction.
