Which reference is used for information on the health risks of international travel?

  1. Yellow Book (CDC)

  2. Red Book, Pediatrics (AAP)

  3. Pink Book (CDC)

  4. Purple Book (FDA)

The correct answer is: Yellow Book (CDC)

The Yellow Book published by the CDC is the most appropriate reference for information on the health risks of international travel. This is because the CDC specifically focuses on communicable diseases and offers detailed information on current outbreaks, vaccination recommendations, and preventive measures for travelers. Option B, the Red Book, focuses on pediatric infectious diseases and is not specific to international travel. Option C, the Pink Book, is a CDC resource for immunization practices and also may not cover all aspects of health risks for travelers. Option D, the Purple Book, is published by the FDA and primarily focuses on the safety of biological products and blood products. It may not provide comprehensive information on overall health risks of international travel.
