Typhoid fever is a life-threatening bacterial infection caused by Salmonella Typhi, primarily spread through contaminated food and drinking water in areas with limited sanitation and poor hygiene standards. It is most prevalent in South Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh), parts of Southeast Asia, Africa, and Central/South America. Symptoms include persistent high fever, severe headache, generalized aches, fatigue, constipation or diarrhea, and in severe cases, intestinal perforation. Vaccination is strongly recommended by the NHS and UK Travel Health guidelines for travellers visiting endemic areas, especially those visiting friends and relatives (VFR), staying in rural accommodations, or travelling for more than a few weeks. The injectable Vi polysaccharide vaccine (Typhim Vi) provides effective protection lasting 3 years.
