Do I need vaccines for Greece?

No mandatory vaccines are required. NaTHNaC recommends Hepatitis A for some travellers and that routine UK boosters (Tetanus, Diphtheria, Polio) are up to date.

Is there malaria in Greece?

No widespread malaria risk. Very small, locally acquired cases have been reported in rural areas in past years but most travellers do not need antimalarials.

Do I need Hep A for the Greek islands?

Standard tourist trips to Santorini, Mykonos or Crete are low risk. Hep A is more relevant if you plan longer trips, rural tavernas, or staying with locals.

How soon before my trip should I come in?

Two to three weeks is ideal but we can usually fit you in same-week.

Travel vaccines for Greece - at a glance

NaTHNaC recommends Tetanus for most travellers to Greece, with Rabies (Bat Lyssavirus) recommended for some travellers depending on itinerary. Aqua Travel Clinic in West Hampstead is operated by Aqua Pharmacy (GPhC premises 1123406, owned by Naspram Pharma Limited) under the Superintendent Pharmacist at Aqua Pharmacy.

Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio (Td/IPV)

The 10-year Td/IPV booster is the main vaccine consideration for Greece. It keeps your Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio cover current in one injection - it can be added to any Aqua consultation.

Rabies (Bat Lyssavirus)

In Greece rabies risk is largely limited to bat exposure. Pre-exposure vaccination is considered for cavers, wildlife workers and children in cave areas. At Aqua we use the three-dose pre-exposure schedule on days 0, 7 and 21-28 (UK Green Book). Pharmacies cannot administer post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) - if you are bitten or scratched abroad, wash the wound thoroughly and go straight to A&E, NHS 111 or a local hospital.
