What is Rabies?
Rabies is a deadly viral infection that affects the brain and nervous system. It is usually transmitted through the bite or scratch of an infected animal – most commonly dogs, monkeys, and bats.
Without treatment, Rabies is almost always fatal once symptoms appear. That’s why prevention through vaccination is critical.
Where is Rabies a Risk?
Rabies remains a concern in many popular travel destinations, including:
Asia – India, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Nepal
Africa – Morocco, Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania
Central and South America – Peru, Bolivia, Brazil
Eastern Europe and some parts of the Middle East
Even in areas where travel is common, medical care can be limited – so pre-exposure vaccination is strongly advised.
Who Should Get the Rabies Vaccine?
At Bromley Travel Clinic, we recommend the Rabies vaccine for:
Backpackers and long-term travellers in remote or rural areas
Volunteers, aid workers, or researchers working with animals
Adventure travellers – trekking, cycling, camping, or wildlife activities
Children – who are at higher risk of animal bites and may not report them
Unsure if you need it? Our experienced clinicians can assess your itinerary and advise.
How the Rabies Vaccine Works
The Rabies vaccine is a course of three injections given over 21 or 28 days. For last-minute travellers, accelerated schedules may be available.
Safe and well tolerated
Long-lasting protection – often for several years
Reduces the need for urgent post-bite treatment abroad
If you are bitten or scratched while travelling, having had the vaccine makes post-exposure treatment simpler and more effective.
