Why is the Dengue Vaccine Important?
Dengue is one of the most common mosquito-borne diseases globally. With rising cases in many popular travel destinations, vaccination provides an important layer of protection — especially for those who have had dengue before, as a second infection can be more severe.
Who Should Get the Dengue Fever Vaccine?
You may be eligible for the dengue vaccine if you:
- Are travelling to dengue-endemic areas in Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean, or Africa
- Have had dengue fever in the past (the vaccine is particularly beneficial in this group)
- Are aged 4 years and above (eligibility depends on the specific vaccine)
- Are staying for extended periods or visiting rural areas with high mosquito activity
A thorough clinical assessment is required before vaccination.
How the Dengue Vaccine Works
The vaccine stimulates your immune system to produce antibodies against the dengue virus. It is administered as an injection, typically in a 2 or 3-dose schedule depending on the vaccine type. Protection builds over time, so it’s best to complete the course well before travel.
When to Get Vaccinated
For optimal protection, start your dengue vaccine course at least 4–6 weeks before departure. Our team will advise the best schedule based on your travel dates and medical history.
