Travel & Routine Immunizations
Published annually since 1992, Travel & Routine Immunizations, now in its 18th edition, keeps you current with immunization practices and guidelines for travelers and non-travelers alike. Included are recommendations from the ACIP, AAP, CDC, WHO, and Shoreland. Shoreland recommendations focus on the risk to the individual traveler and reflect a synthesis and reconciliation of advice from CDC, ACIP, AAP, and WHO, ongoing global surveillance, and the published literature. Popularly known as the "Blue Book," Travel & Routine Immunizations provides the clinical practitioner with detailed vaccine information on U.S.-licensed vaccines as well as many non-U.S.-licensed vaccines – from indications for vaccination to administration, contraindications, side effects, and special considerations (e.g., entry requirements). The guide also includes general information on immunization practices (e.g., storage and handling), information on new vaccines, accelerated immunization schedules, minimum age and interval guidance, 29 concise tables, and practical information on traveler preparation.
