Global uptake of new vaccines shapes the epidemiology of infections, and in turn this changing epidemiology guides vaccine development. Once introduced, surveillance and monitoring of the impact of vaccines on disease and adverse events is vital for further development. This article reviews the use of vaccines as part of routine health care, vaccines that may be required for entry into a destination country, and vaccines that are recommended because of risk during travel. Considerations and advances in the vaccination of travelers are addressed.
新疫苗在全球的应用改变了传染病的流行病学特征，而传染病的流行病学特征反过来又指导着疫苗的研发。疫苗一旦投入使用，就必须对其在疾病和不良反应方面的影响进行监测和监控，以进一步改进疫苗。本文综述了疫苗在常规保健中的应用、入境时需要接种的疫苗以及旅行期间因风险而推荐接种的疫苗。文中还讨论了旅行者疫苗接种的注意事项和进展。
