Up to 64% of travellers to the developing world experience travel-related health problems.
Travel-related injuries and illnesses have an estimated impact of over $650 million in lost productivity costs for the United States.
Many travel-related diseases and illnesses can be prevented by vaccines or medications, while others can be self-treated by the traveller equipped with antibiotics and other medications. As an employer, this means increased employee productivity, decreased medical and extended-stay costs, and decreased lost work-time.
