Frequently Asked Questions
When should I get the yellow fever vaccine?
You should usually have the vaccine at least 10 days before travel, as this is when your certificate becomes valid. Booking early also gives you time to get any other travel vaccinations or advice you may need.
Do I need a yellow fever certificate?
Some countries require an International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis as proof of yellow fever vaccination. Our pharmacist can advise whether this applies to your destination.
How long does the yellow fever vaccine last?
For most people, one dose provides long-term protection. In some cases, further medical advice may be needed depending on your health, destination, or travel requirements.
Are there any side effects?
Most side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, headache, muscle aches, tiredness, or a mild fever. Our pharmacist will explain what to expect and when to seek advice.
