Description du cours

As international travel resumes, pharmacists have an increasingly important role in protecting Canadian travellers from travel-related illnesses.

This program will help pharmacists make pre-travel health recommendations and advise patients on appropriate prevention strategies to reduce the risks of common travel-related diseases (i.e. travellers’ diarrhea, hepatitis A&B, typhoid, and rabies) and to prevent mosquito-borne diseases during travel.


This program has received an educational grant or in-kind support from Valneva.
