Traveling with HIV Disease
Patients with HIV disease who travel abroad may encounter some unique risks. Some pre-travel vaccinations may be inappropriate for HIV positive travelers. The risk of acquiring infections abroad may be higher.
Traveling with Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary artery disease remains the most common cause of death for men and women over the age of 50. One study of deaths among U.S. travelers to Mexico found that circulatory disease was the second most common cause behind motor vehicle accidents. Despite these alarming facts, however, the risk of having a heart attack for travelers abroad is less than that of the
population at home.
