A member asked:
Should i proceed with pre-travel vaccines if i have only 13 days instead of a full 2 weeks?

Yes: The time issue is meant to assure that your protection has become active at the time travel starts. Delay for a day or 2 does not cancel the benefit for the trip, just delays full benefit of the vaccines. if you skip them make plans for how you will deal with getting a preventable sickness.

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. Don't know where you are going or which vaccines you need- but would definitely encourage you get any shots which are either recommended by Travel Medicine specialist or which are required by country you are entering.
