When should I get vaccinated?

Get vaccinated at least ten days before travel so your certificate becomes valid. Earlier is better to plan other vaccines and manage any side effects.

How long does protection last?

One dose gives long lasting protection for most people. Your certificate does not usually expire, though a booster can be advised for specific risks.

Who should not have this vaccine?

Babies under six months, people with severe allergies to vaccine ingredients, and those with a weakened immune system should not have it. Speak to us if you are over sixty, pregnant, or breastfeeding.

What are the common side effects?

You might get a sore arm, mild fever, headache, or muscle aches for a short time. Serious side effects are rare, but you should seek help if you feel very unwell.

Will I get an official certificate?

Yes, you will receive an International Certificate of Vaccination. It becomes valid ten days after the injection.

Can I have other vaccines on the same day?

Often yes. We will review your travel plan and give safe scheduling advice for other travel vaccines.

What the vaccine does

Yellow fever is a serious disease spread by mosquitoes in parts of Africa and South America. You may need a certificate for entry to certain countries. Book at least ten days before travel so your certificate becomes valid in time.

One dose gives long lasting protection for most people. A booster may be suggested in specific situations after a clinician reviews your itinerary and risks. Bring your travel dates and routes to your appointment. You will receive clear notes and your certificate after vaccination.

Some people should not have this vaccine. This includes babies under six months, people with severe allergies to ingredients, and those with a weakened immune system. If you are over sixty, pregnant, or breastfeeding, the pharmacist will discuss risks and alternatives.

Mild side effects can include soreness, headache, and a temperature. Serious reactions are rare. Rest, drink fluids, and avoid strenuous exercise on the day. Use bite avoidance measures on your trip. Ask us about repellents, clothing tips, and evening protection.

What to look for

Planning your appointment

Aim to book at least six weeks before travel so you can plan other vaccines too. The minimum safe window is ten days before departure for your certificate to become valid. Last minute options may be available. Call us for guidance.

Do you need a booster?

Most people will not need another dose. A booster may be advised if you are at ongoing high risk, work with the virus in a laboratory, or had your first dose when very young or during pregnancy. Ask our pharmacist for personalised advice.
