Abstract

A survey in São Paulo, Brazil, assessed travel agents’ knowledge on travellers’ health. Data were collected using an online questionnaire. Of 200 agencies contacted, 32 answered (34 agents). Most consultants reported discussing personal safety, health insurance and vaccination. Few provided information on water and food diseases or sexually transmitted infections.
