travelling before baby has injections
You will need to have two hepatitis A injections for your body to develop full immunity to the infection. You should have a booster dose six to 12 months after the first. Itâs best to have the first injection about two weeks before you travel, but itâs possible to have it the day before you leave.The vaccine (if the booster dose is given) can give up to 30 years of protection.n the UK, you will usually have had the tetanus vaccine as part of your routine childhood immunisations, unless you were born before 1961 when the UK-wide vaccine programme started. Make sure that you have had the full course of injections â three initial injections with two boosters.
