Vaccinations To Consider When Visiting U.S. National Parks
Rabies
A rabies vaccination is administered over the course of three to four weeks. It protects against a life-threatening illness contracted through animal and human bites. It may also occur through getting scratched by something infected. All warm-blooded animals can carry Rabies, and camping in national parks will put you in close proximity to potential carriers. Therefore, it is crucial to include this vaccination in your plan.
