What is IXCHIQ vaccination?
IXCHIQ is a vaccine against the chikungunya virus - a disease transmitted by mosquitoes, occurring in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. It is administered in a single dose and prepares the immune system to defend against the virus. Vaccination is particularly important for people planning to travel to endemic regions.
Benefits of IXCHIQ vaccination:
Protection in one dose
A single administration is enough to prepare your body to defend against the chikungunya virus. You don't need to return for additional doses or booster shots.
Safer travel to tropical countries
You reduce the risk of infection during trips to Asia, Africa, or Latin America. You can plan trekking, fieldwork, and extended stays with greater peace of mind.
Preparation before departure
Vaccination can be done in advance, so your body will be ready for contact with the virus. It's a simple way to increase your health safety.
Is IXCHIQ vaccination right for you?
The vaccine is intended for people aged 12 and older who are planning to travel to regions where the chikungunya virus occurs or where there is an active outbreak. It is especially recommended for those traveling for extended periods or planning intensive outdoor activities - for example, during trekking or fieldwork. Eligibility for vaccination is determined by medical personnel based on medical history and current health status.
Vaccination process:
- Prepare your ID and vaccination record (if you have one)
- Inform the staff about chronic diseases, allergies, and medications you are taking
- Undergo a brief qualification - questions about your health status and contraindications (The service does not include vaccination qualification. Qualification must be purchased separately)
- Receive the vaccine intramuscularly in a single dose
- Remain under brief observation at the vaccination point
Take care of your safety before traveling
IXCHIQ vaccination is an effective way to reduce the risk of chikungunya infection during trips to tropical countries. Remember that even after vaccination, it's worth using additional protection against mosquito bites - repellents, long sleeves, and mosquito nets. If you're planning a trip to an endemic region, schedule a consultation and check if vaccination is right for you.
