AB  - Approximately  50%–70%  of  travelers  become  ill  during  their  travel  overseas.  The  number  of  children  traveling  with  families  continues  to  increase.  Children  who  travel  are  especially  susceptible  to  infectious  diseases,  trauma,  and  other  health  problems,  which  vary  with  the  destination.  Preparation  for  travel  with  children  and  infants  includes  consideration  of  destination-specific  risks,  underlying  medical  problems,  and  administration  of  both  routine  and  travel-related  vaccines.  Pretravel  counseling  should  ideally  take  place  at  least  1  month  prior  to  travel,  given  the  need  to  develop  an  effective  immune  response  from  any  travel-associated  vaccinations.  The  physician  involved  in  pretravel  counseling  should  focus  on  the  issues  listed  in  Table  45–1.
