In den letzten Jahren wurden verschiedene reisemedizinisch relevante Impfstoffe neu zugelassen. Dazu zählen neue und verbesserte Vakzine gegen Cholera, enterotoxinbildende Escherichia coli, Rotaviren, Meningokokken und Influenza. Hoffnungsvolle Impfstoffkandidaten sind die in fortgeschrittener klinischer Erprobung stehenden Impfstoffe gegen die Japanische Enzephalitis, Hepatitis E, präpandemische H5N1–Impfstoffe, ein Vierfach–Impfstoff gegen Meningokokken, eine Konjugat–Vakzine gegen den Typhus–Erreger, einige wenige Impfstoffe gegen Malaria sowie ein Impfstoff gegen den Erreger des Chikungunya–Fiebers. Dringender Bedarf an Impfstoffen besteht noch bei so bedeutenden Infektionskrankheiten wie HIV/AIDS oder Tuberkulose.

In recent years a variety of vaccines for travels abroad have been officially approved. This includes many new and improved vaccines against cholera, Escherichia coli producing enterotoxins, rotaviruses, meningococci and influenza. Promising vaccines are still being clinically tested against Japanese encephalitis, hepatitis E, pre–pandemic H5N1 vaccines, a quadruple vaccine against meningococci, a conjugate vaccine against typhoid, a few antimalarial vaccines and a vaccine against chikungunya. However, there is an urgent need for vaccines against prominent diseases such as HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis.
