Packing their bags for vacation, the Russians on New Year's holidays can take care of the first-aid kit, but forget about protecting against infections. Experts told what exactly you need to get vaccinated before traveling to other countries.

According to the infectionist Svetlana Smetanina, first you need to see which of the 17 vaccinations were given as part of the regional vaccination calendar. As for other infections, doctors recommend vaccinating against them according to epidemic indications, reports the Moscow Depzdrav.

Measles protection requires close attention, especially when traveling to European countries.. For example, recent outbreaks have been reported in Germany. For refusing vaccination, the government of this country proposed to introduce a fine.

The doctor reminds: measles is a very contagious disease with a severe course, which can lead to the death of a young child. Of particular danger are complications of the disease - serious pathological processes in the brain, damage to the lungs, kidneys and other organs. Measles is spreading due to the refusal of parents to vaccinate their babies.

According to the WHO, in just three months of this year, the number of people infected with measles on the whole planet increased 4 times. Deaths are common.

You need to protect yourself from the disease in advance. Vaccines begin to act after a time - from two weeks to two to three months, depending on the drug administered.
