If you are travelling to parts of Asia, especially rural or farming areas, you may need the Japanese encephalitis vaccine in Streatham. This infection spreads through mosquito bites and can lead to serious illness, such as brain swelling, although this is rare. The vaccine is given in two doses with a gap of a few weeks. It is best to start early so you are fully protected before your trip. The vaccine is suitable for adults and children over two months of age. Touchwood Pharmacy offers the Japanese encephalitis injection in Streatham along with helpful advice on staying safe during your travels.

Is the Japanese Encephalitis Vaccination Right for You?

You might need the Japanese encephalitis vaccination in Streatham if:

  • You will stay in Asia for more than a month.
  • You plan to visit rural or rice farming areas.
  • You are travelling during the rainy season.
  • You will spend a lot of time outdoors, especially in the evening.

Even if your stay is shorter, the Japanese encephalitis immunisation may still be advised depending on your plans. Our team can help you decide based on where and how you will be travelling.
