Why is it important to get Vaccinated?
Vaccinations are crucial for protecting yourself and your loved ones. Additionally, for your travel insurance to be effective, it is necessary to have received the recommended vaccinations. Keep in mind that some vaccinations require multiple doses, so it’s important to plan and get vaccinated well in advance of your departure date, typically 6-8 weeks prior.
