Typhoid vaccination Munich

Typhoid fever is a disease caused by bacteria, Salmonella typhi. It can be transmitted fecal-orally or through contaminated drinking water or food. The disease can take a severe course. Typhus, which is widespread worldwide, is particularly likely to occur in risk areas such as North Africa or Asia. There is an increased risk of infection, especially for trekking tourists.

About the typhoid vaccination

There are two variants of a typhoid vaccination. An active typhoid vaccination with a dead vaccine that is injected or an oral vaccination with a live vaccine. The typhoid vaccination by injection is a one-time vaccination. With the oral vaccination, a total of three capsules must be taken within five days.

The immunization should be completed approximately two weeks before departure.
