Abstract

Background: International travel is resuming, but the COVID-19 pandemic has radically changed the context in terms of regulation, risks and models of travel.

Objective: Providing travel health advice is an important role for general practice. The aim of this article is to cover the changed context and wide-ranging implications of the COVID‑19 pandemic for travel health advice.

Discussion: Travel in the COVID-19 era requires travellers to be well informed and prepared to comply with complex and evolving public health measures. There are changing patterns of infectious disease risk related to the impacts of the pandemic, increasing antimicrobial resistance and climate change. New models of travel include a shift towards greater environmental sustainability.
