Your Local Innovative Travel Clinic in Manchester

Are you about to head off on your gap year of travel? Are you getting ready for your spiritual journey to Mecca for Hajj or Umrah? Or are you jetting off for a few days on a business trip to a more exotic country?

Wherever you are going in this world, the Everest Pharmacy Travel Clinic in Manchester is here to keep you safe and protected along your way.

Why are travel vaccinations important?

When you travel to a more exotic country, you may be exposed to pathogens that your body does not have protection against. We call this protection “immunity”, hence the word “immunisations”. This may lead to infection and disease, for example, Hepatitis A or Yellow Fever which will, of course, lead to illness. In some cases, these illnesses can be very severe or even fatal. By having a vaccination, or multiple before you travel, you will develop protection against them. This is extremely important because some of these diseases are often life-threatening.

How do travel vaccines work?

Travel vaccines work in very similar ways to each other and there are many different types that provide immunity against a variety of diseases. Essentially, you’re injected with a solution that mimics the invading pathogen of the disease. This will then stimulate your immune system to produce antibodies (white blood cells) that are designed to fight off the specific infection. Therefore, if you’re ever exposed to the bacteria or virus, your defence system will kill it before any harm can be done to you.

Ideally, you should get vaccinated at least 21 days (sometimes more for others such as the Rabies vaccine) before you travel to your destination. This will ensure that your body has time to produce all the antibodies needed for maximum protection.

The Everest Pharmacy Travel Clinic in the United Kingdom

Our pharmacists at Everest Pharmacy are fully trained to administer travel vaccinations of all types and prescribe antimalarial medication. We also give you thorough, up-to-date health advice and information ahead of your travels so that you’re fully aware of the risks involved before you depart.

Travel Health and Immunisations

Most travellers have a safe and healthy trip, but there can be additional risks to consider when travelling abroad. Please read our general advice below about how to keep safe when travelling and what to consider when planning your trip.

The risks specific to your destination can at the following NaTHNac website:  Travel Health Pro Country Information .

In addition we recommend that you view the gov.uk website that contains up to date security and safety issues worldwide:  gov.uk Foreign Travel Advice

Many people are taking long haul holidays requiring complicated courses of vaccines. Children also need to be vaccinated for travel abroad. Most travel vaccinations are free, however unfortunately the NHS does not cover the cost of all treatments that you may need. Please see our  Travel Vaccination Factsheet. 

It is important to start planning and preparing early, and to make the process smooth please see our  Safe Travel Guidelines .

Booking your Appointment with the Nurse

Travel risk assessment.

We recommend that you first find out more information about the countries that you will be travelling to by visiting  Travel Health Pro . This is a very informative website and can give you information about what vaccines or medicines you may need.

You should check whether you are already covered for these by any previous vaccinations. However please note that the practice will not have any record of previous vaccinations given outside of NHS services eg. From a private travel clinic.

Compare the advice here against our  Travel Vaccination guide  for which vaccinations are available to you on the NHS. Any other vaccinations required must be sourced privately and will incur a charge. Remember to keep a personal record of all your vaccinations and any boosters that you might need to stay protected.

You should download a copy of our  Travel Risk Assessment form (pdf)  and drop it into surgery. If you don’t have online access, you can complete a paper copy available from our reception desk.

However please note that incomplete forms will be returned and could cause delays to your appointment

Your travel appointment

Once you have submitted your form, you will be called to book a travel clinic appointment with the nurse if it is required.

IMPORTANT – Please Allow Plenty of Time

You should complete the required  Travel Risk Assessment Form,  to be able to book an appointment with the practice nurse at least 8 weeks prior to travel. This is especially important during the summer months due to the pressure on our travel services during that time. 

A travel clinic appointment is 30 minute long with one of our Practice Nurses in which she will advise you on aspects of travel advice, including vaccines needed and / or malaria tablets required.

If you are planning to travel in less than 8 weeks, we cannot guarantee that we will have appointments available for all vaccines to be given in time so as to ensure adequate protection. 

If we don’t have suitable appointments before your travel date, then the travel clinics listed below should be able to help you.

Specialist non NHS Travel Clinics

There are specialist non-NHS travel clinics and you may we be directed to their services for certain vaccines that we are unable to provide at the surgery.

These clinics can often provide services at short notice for travellers who have been unable to plan in advance. There is a charge for these vaccines. Details of local private clinics are listed below:

• Nomad Travel 66 to 68 Bridge Street, Manchester M3 2RJ Telephone 0161 832 2134
• Manchester Travel Clinic, Ladybarn Court, Fallowfield, Manchester M14 6WP Telephone 0161 248 6644
• STA Travel Unit 6, Barton Arcade, 55 Deansgate, Manchester M3 2BW Telephone 0330 100 4131
• Alexandra Practice 365 Wilbraham Road, Whalley Range, Manchester M16 8NG Telephone 0161 860 4400
• Surrey Lodge Group Practice-11 Anson Road, Victoria Park, Manchester, M14 5BY Telephone 0161 224 2471

We do not provide private prescriptions for malaria prevention.

In addition to private travel clinics above, the following local pharmacies can provide you with a prescription for this.

Local malaria prevention providers:

• Boots Pharmacy, Regents Park, M5 3PT
• Asda Pharmacy Hulme, 100 Princess Road, M15 5AS

Please note that private prescriptions and vaccinations are chargeable and this price may vary depending on the provider you use.

Prescriptions

If you require a prescription for vaccinations this will be ready to collect upto 3 working days following your appointment.

Safe Travel

In addition to making sure you are up to date with your childhood vaccinations and any of the required vaccinations for the destination you’re travelling to, it is essential that you take precautions in order to stay well during your trip.

Please see our travel advice leaflet from  this link

It’s also important to consider any specific precautions you should be taking based on the area you are travelling to.

There are currently a number of restrictions in place for travel as a result of Covid-19. This advice is frequently updated and can change very quickly.

You can check this on the Gov.uk website:   gov.uk/guidance/travel-advice-novel-coronavirus#covid-19-travel-guidance

Mosquito Bite Avoidance for Travellers

In many tropical countries, mosquitoes can spread diseases such as dengue, chikungunya, West Nile, malaria, yellow fever and Zika. Here are five simple rules you should follow to reduce your risk of infections spread by mosquitoes.

Travel Vaccination Charges

We offer the travel health service free of charge , but unfortunately the NHS does not cover the cost of all the treatments you may need. Therefore, for some services you may need to pay.

Please see our charges listed below:

Travel Vaccinations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with one of the practice nurses to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below

It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible – at least 6 weeks before you travel – as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.

Travel vaccination advice

If you're planning to travel outside the UK, you may need to be vaccinated against some of the serious diseases found in other parts of the world.

Vaccinations are available to protect you against infections such as yellow fever , typhoid and hepatitis A .

In the UK, the  NHS routine immunisation (vaccination) schedule protects you against a number of diseases, but does not cover all of the infectious diseases found overseas.

When should I start thinking about the vaccines I need?

If possible, see the GP or a private travel clinic at least 6 to 8 weeks before you're due to travel.

Some vaccines need to be given well in advance to allow your body to develop immunity.

And some vaccines involve a number of doses spread over several weeks or months.

You may be more at risk of some diseases, for example, if you're:

• travelling in rural areas
• backpacking
• staying in hostels or camping
• on a long trip rather than a package holiday

If you have a pre-existing health problem, this may make you more at risk of infection or complications from a travel-related illness.

Which travel vaccines do I need?

You can find out which vaccinations are necessary or recommended for the areas you'll be visiting on these websites:

• Travel Health Pro
• NHS Fit for Travel

Some countries require proof of vaccination (for example, for polio or yellow fever vaccination), which must be documented on an International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis (ICVP) before you enter or when you leave a country.

Saudi Arabia requires proof of vaccination against certain types of meningitis for visitors arriving for the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages.

Even if an ICVP is not required, it's still a good idea to take a record of the vaccinations you have had with you.

Find out more about the vaccines available for travellers abroad

Where do I get my travel vaccines?

First, phone or visit the GP practice or practice nurse to find out whether your existing UK vaccinations are up-to-date.

If you have any records of your vaccinations, let the GP know what you have had previously.

The GP or practice nurse may be able to give you general advice about travel vaccinations and travel health, such as protecting yourself from malaria.

They can give you any missing doses of your UK vaccines if you need them.

Not all travel vaccinations are available free on the NHS, even if they're recommended for travel to a certain area.

If the GP practice can give you the travel vaccines you need but they are not available on the NHS, ask for:

• written information on what vaccines are needed
• the cost of each dose or course
• any other charges you may have to pay, such as for some certificates of vaccination

You can also get travel vaccines from:

• private travel vaccination clinics
• pharmacies offering travel healthcare services

Which travel vaccines are free?

The following travel vaccines are available free on the NHS from your GP surgery:

• polio (given as a combined diphtheria/tetanus/polio jab )
• hepatitis A

These vaccines are free because they protect against diseases thought to represent the greatest risk to public health if they were brought into the country.

Which travel vaccines will I have to pay for?

You'll have to pay for travel vaccinations against:

• hepatitis B
• Japanese encephalitis
• tick-borne encephalitis
• tuberculosis (TB)
• yellow fever

Yellow fever vaccines are only available from designated centres .

The cost of travel vaccines that are not available on the NHS will vary, depending on the vaccine and number of doses you need.

It's worth considering this when budgeting for your trip.

Other things to consider

There are other things to consider when planning your travel vaccinations, including:

• your age and health – you may be more vulnerable to infection than others; some vaccines cannot be given to people with certain medical conditions
• working as an aid worker – you may come into contact with more diseases in a refugee camp or helping after a natural disaster
• working in a medical setting – a doctor, nurse or another healthcare worker may require additional vaccinations
• contact with animals – you may be more at risk of getting diseases spread by animals, such as rabies

If you're only travelling to countries in northern and central Europe, North America or Australia, you're unlikely to need any vaccinations.

But it's important to check that you're up-to-date with routine vaccinations available on the NHS.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Speak to a GP before having any vaccinations if:

• you're pregnant
• you think you might be pregnant
• you're breastfeeding

In many cases, it's unlikely a vaccine given while you're pregnant or breastfeeding will cause problems for the baby.

But the GP will be able to give you further advice about this.

People with immune deficiencies

For some people travelling overseas, vaccination against certain diseases may not be advised.

This may be the case if:

• you have a condition that affects your body's immune system, such as HIV or AIDS
• you're receiving treatment that affects your immune system, such as chemotherapy
• you have recently had a bone marrow or organ transplant

A GP can give you further advice about this.

Non-travel vaccines

As well as getting any travel vaccinations you need, it's also a good opportunity to make sure your other vaccinations are up-to-date and have booster vaccines if necessary.

Although many routine NHS vaccinations are given during childhood, you can have some of them (such as the MMR vaccine ) as an adult if you missed getting vaccinated as a child.

There are also some extra NHS vaccinations for people at higher risk of certain illnesses, such as the flu vaccine , the hepatitis B vaccine and the BCG vaccine for tuberculosis (TB) .

Your GP can advise you about any NHS vaccinations you might need.

The clinics where you can walk in and get vaccines and boosters in Greater Manchester

The government has been urging people in the run up to Christmas to get a third booster shot of the vaccine, which they say is the best possible protection from the fast-spreading Omicron strain

• 18:43, 15 DEC 2021
• Updated 11:20, 16 DEC 2021

As Omicron cases rise, and the UK's health leaders call the variant 'probably the most significant threat since the start of the pandemic', people are coming forward to get vaccinated.

The Prime Minister announced earlier this week that all adults over 18 will be able to get their booster, as long as they have had their second jab three months ago.

For adults, if you had your first dose eight weeks ago, you can now get your second jab.

READ MORE: LIVE: Boris Johnson makes announcement at coronavirus press conference from Downing Street

Teenagers aged 16 and 17 can get a first dose and second dose (at least 12 weeks after their first).

Most children aged 12 to 15 are currently only being offered one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, accompanied by a parent or carer to provide consent.

Booster doses are also available to:

• people aged 16 and over with a health condition that puts them at high risk of getting seriously ill from Covid-19
• carers aged 16 and over
• people aged 16 and over who live with someone who is more likely to get infections (such as someone who has HIV, has had a transplant or is having certain treatments for cancer, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis)

Yellow Fever vaccination

Yellow Fever is a serious and potentially fatal viral disease that is spread by mosquitoes in tropical parts of Africa and South America. It occurs in both jungle and urban environments and is particularly common in the rainy season.

Choose Your Yellow Fever Clinic

About the vaccine

• When to get vaccinated : At least 10 days before you travel.
• Boosters: The yellow fever vaccine lasts a lifetime. Most people won’t need any boosters for future travel.
• Course: One dose.
• How it is given: The yellow fever vaccine consists of an injection usually given in your upper arm.
• How long does the Yellow Fever vaccine last? The yellow fever vaccine protect you for life (there are some exceptions, such as under 2 year olds who may need a booster)
• Side effects:  Serious side effects from the yellow fever vaccine are rare. Common side effects include soreness at the injection site, headache and pain.
• Children: Not usually recommended for children under nine months.
• Additional precautions: In addition to getting vaccinated you need to practise mosquito bite avoidance.
• Certificate requirements: Some countries require a yellow fever certificate. Your certificate becomes valid 10 days after you have had the jab.
• Risk if you contract yellow fever: Yellow fever can range from a mild flu-like illness to a fatal disease which causes internal bleeding and organ

How it Works

Book an appointment online, attend your consultation, get your treatment, frequently asked question, yellow fever prevention.

In addition to a timely yellow fever vaccination, you should protect yourself from mosquito bites while you are abroad.

Using a mosquito repellent and wearing long sleeved-tops as well as long trousers will deter mosquitoes and reduce your risk of catching an infection. You may also wish to take a mosquito coil or plug-in device with you, to use in your accommodation.

By avoiding swamps and other mosquito breeding grounds, you can minimise your exposure to insect bites. Ideally, you should stay in places with air conditioning or at least insect mesh screening in front of all windows.

Yellow fever countries

Yellow fever is currently known to affect people living in or travelling to 43 countries located on the African continent as well as South America.

African nations known to have a high occurrence of yellow fever include most central African nations, for example the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Nigeria, and Burkina Faso.

Travellers planning a trip to South America should consider a yellow fever vaccine if travelling to Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia or Venezuela.

Please note: The countries which are considered risk countries are constantly changing. For up to date information on the vaccines you need for your destination, search for the country  here .

What is yellow fever?

The World Health Organisation reports that there are about 84,000 – 170,000 severe cases of yellow fever a year, resulting in 29,000 – 60,000 deaths. The most important step in preventing yellow fever is a yellow fever vaccination prior to travel.

Yellow fever is a viral infection, which is passed on by a particular type of mosquito. The Aedes aegypti mosquito, which carries the virus, occurs primarily in African and South American countries. The mosquito’s bite leads to infection and the typical symptoms of yellow fever, which include fever, vomiting or nausea, headache, muscle pains and a characteristic yellowing of the whites of the eyes (also known as jaundice). Yellow fever is not passed from person to person.

Yellow fever increases the risk of dehydration and can be very dangerous. It can cause haemorrhagic fever (which causes bleeding from the mouth, eyes, ears and stomach) as well as multi organ failure. The virus causes an estimated 29,000 – 60,000 deaths worldwide every year and affects over 170,000 patients. 20% – 50% of yellow fever patients who suffer severe symptoms die of the infection.

The diagnosis of yellow fever involves a blood test, as the symptoms of yellow fever are very similar to those caused by other tropical diseases. There is no specific yellow fever treatment. In mild cases, patients usually rely on painkillers and anti-inflammatory medication to alleviate the symptoms. In severe cases, hospital treatment is needed.

If you are planning to visit a country where yellow fever is endemic, you need to visit a Superdrug yellow fever centre for a vaccination. The nurse or pharmacist will assess whether the vaccine is suitable for you.

Side effects

Most vaccinations can cause side effects in some patients. The yellow fever vaccine is no exception and you may experience side effects such as headache, muscle pain and fever in the days after you have received the jab. You may also notice swelling or redness at the injection site, which should resolve within two weeks. If you experience any other concerning side effects or do not get better within two weeks, seek medical advice.

Seek urgent medical attention immediately if you notice signs of an allergic reaction after receiving the jab. Symptoms of an allergic reaction can include skin rash or hives, swellings and difficulty breathing, as well as feeling weak or faint.

About the yellow fever vaccine

The yellow fever jab is available at your local Superdrug travel health clinic, which is a registered yellow fever centre. You need to arrange your vaccine for a date at least ten days before you travel. Once you have received the vaccine, you are protected for life (there are some exceptions to this rule, under 2 year olds for example may need a booster).

Please note that a four week minimum interval period should ideally be observed between the administration of MMR and Yellow Fever vaccines to ensure these are effective.  If you think you need protection from yellow fever urgently and leaving this gap may not be possible, please talk to your doctor, nurse or pharmacist for advice.

Yellow fever certificate

A number of countries require a yellow fever certificate, which is called the International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis (ICVP). Other risk destinations may not ask you for a certificate, but if visiting a risk area you still need to have the vaccination. Please bear in mind, your yellow fever certificate will only become valid ten days after the injection.

Yellow fever certificates used to expire after a certain number of years. However, they are now valid for life for most people. This includes certificates which were issued before this rule changed in July 2016 and which have an expiry date on them.

If you have been vaccinated at one of our clinics and have lost your yellow fever certificate, our staff will be able to issue a replacement card. We charge an admin fee of £15 for issuing a new yellow fever certificate.

You do not need to pay extra for your first certificate if you receive the jab at one of our clinics.
