Why Liverpool's frequent flyers talk dengue with us
Dengue is different from most travel vaccines: whether it's right for you depends less on one destination and more on your travel pattern — how often you're in tropical and subtropical regions, for how long, and whether you've had dengue before. That's why this page ends the same way every dengue conversation should: with a proper consultation.
The clinic is led by Muneer Saleh, a GPhC-registered pharmacist and Independent Prescriber, at Cares Chemist on Myrtle Street — a registered pharmacy premises (GPhC 1114685). No GP referral is needed, same-day consultations are often available within 2 hours, and we're rated 4.9 on Google by more than 200 patients.
The course itself is two doses, three months apart — so if dengue vaccination turns out to be right for you, it rewards planning ahead of your next long stay in South East Asia, South Asia, Latin America or the Caribbean.
Assessment first, vaccination where it fits.

Dengue has become the question we're asked most by Liverpool's long-haul regulars — the Thailand-every-winter crowd, families spending school summers with relatives in South Asia, and remote workers doing months at a time in Latin America or the Caribbean. It's a good question, because dengue is genuinely different from the rest of the travel-vaccine menu: suitability depends on your travel pattern and your history, not just a country name on a map.
At our Liverpool travel clinic, the dengue conversation is most relevant for:
- Repeat travellers to tropical and subtropical regions — South East Asia, South Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean
- Long-stay travellers: extended family visits, remote-working stints, placements and sabbaticals
- People who have had dengue before — a genuinely important detail, so tell us
Whether the vaccine is right for you is assessed properly at your consultation, against current UK guidance and NaTHNaC country advice — not assumed from a headline.
The course and schedule
| Course | Doses | Spacing |
|---|---|---|
| Dengue vaccination | 2 | 3 months apart |
The three-month spacing is the planning fact that matters: dengue vaccination suits travellers thinking one trip ahead. Booked now, the course can be complete before next winter's long-haul season — see our booking page for current prices, and let the consultation settle the suitability question first.
Day-biting mosquitoes
One practical dengue fact every tropical traveller should hold onto: the mosquitoes that spread it bite during the day. That changes the habit set — daytime repellent, clothing choices and accommodation checks — and your pharmacist covers it all, following Fit for Travel guidance, whether or not vaccination turns out to be right for you.
Same-day consultations in Liverpool
You can't rush a two-dose course three months apart, but you can start it promptly: same-day consultations are often available within 2 hours at our walk-in-friendly city centre clinic, open until 6pm weekdays and Saturday mornings. If your travel pattern makes dengue worth discussing, the sensible time for that discussion is now — not the week before the flight.
What's included
Your appointment covers the suitability assessment against current UK guidance, the vaccinations where the course is right for you, a written vaccination record, and day-biting mosquito advice you can use on every trip. Anything specific to your health history is confirmed at your consultation.
Getting to the clinic
We're at 37 Myrtle Street, L7 7AJ, in the Georgian Quarter — city centre, near the universities and the Royal Liverpool Hospital, with on-street parking nearby — serving the whole of Liverpool and Merseyside. City workers reach us via the Liverpool city centre page, and south-enders via Wavertree. Travellers weighing dengue often ask about the region's other day-biting mosquito illness — see the chikungunya vaccine — and rural-Asia routes bring the Japanese encephalitis vaccine into the same conversation. Call 0151 542 5420 or book online at liverpoolclinic.co.uk/booking.
