As greater numbers of people travel to exotic locations, vaccine technology is becoming increasingly important. Deciding on appropriate immunisation can be complex: it involves assessment of the traveller's risk, an awareness of the potential diseases at a particular destination and knowledge of the vaccines available. This article focuses on nine diseases that can be prevented through vaccination: hepatitis A; typhoid; yellow fever; hepatitis B; tick-borne encephalitis; rabies; meningococcal meningitis; Japanese encephalitis; and cholera. In each case the indications for immunisation are discussed as well as any contraindications and adverse reactions to the vaccines.
随着越来越多的人前往异国他乡，疫苗技术变得越发重要。确定适当的免疫接种可能很复杂：这涉及评估旅行者的风险、了解特定目的地的潜在疾病以及可用疫苗的知识。本文重点介绍九种可通过接种疫苗预防的疾病：甲型肝炎；伤寒；黄热病；乙型肝炎；蜱传脑炎；狂犬病；脑膜炎球菌性脑膜炎；日本脑炎；以及霍乱。在每种情况下，都会讨论免疫接种的适应症以及疫苗的任何禁忌症和不良反应。
