    Document: Travel medicine is the branch of medicine that deals with the prevention and management of health problems of international travelers [1] [2] [3] [4] . The field of travel medicine encompasses a wide variety of disciplines including epidemiology, infectious disease, public health, tropical medicine, high altitude physiology, travel related obstetrics, psychiatry, occupational medicine, military and migration medicine, and environmental health.
