When traveling to Cuba, certain vaccinations are recommended to help keep you safe and healthy. While specific vaccination requirements can vary based on your home country and medical history, the following vaccines are typically advised:

• Hepatitis A: This vaccine is recommended for all travelers, as it can be contracted through contaminated food or water.
• Hepatitis B: Especially important if you plan on engaging in activities that may expose you to bodily fluids.
• Typhoid: This vaccine is recommended for those who may eat or drink outside standard restaurants and hotels.
• Routine Vaccines: Ensure you are up to date on routine vaccines such as measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis, varicella (chickenpox), polio, and your annual flu shot.

It’s advisable to consult with your healthcare provider to determine which vaccines are appropriate for you, especially if you have pre-existing health conditions.

Overall Travel Health Cuba Considerations
