Travel Vaccines

The Cobb Public Health's Travel Health Clinic can help protect you from illness when you travel overseas. We stock vaccines throughout the year and receive weekly updates about the health and political climate worldwide from the World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Yellow Fever is the only vaccine currently required for international travel to countries in Africa, and South America, but there may be other immunizations that are recommended for the country you're traveling to. We review your health and immunization history, as well as your travel plans, and assess your risk for acquiring vaccine-preventable diseases and administer the vaccines needed to protect you from these diseases.

We also provide information on how to prevent illness from insects, food, and water. A special computer program gives customized information about the countries you're traveling to, including entry requirements, areas of political or military instability, medical facilities, customs, crime, and laws.

We can help you have a safer and more enjoyable trip. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call (770) 514-2485. Travel Health Services are offered by appointment only at the Marietta Public Health Center:
