Valneva in Partnership (VIP) is an “all-inclusive programme of tools, assets and resources” that aims to address the “significant and growing unmet health needs among UK travellers”, the company said.

VIP offers pharmacies access to online travel health training and consultation platforms, a referral scheme with clinic finder, and a range of disease awareness support materials.

Graham Thoms, head of commercial operations UK, Ireland and Southern Europe at Valneva UK, said the launch of the VIP programme is “intended to be a win-win for travellers and pharmacists alike”.

VIP officially launches in August 2017, but interest can be registered on vip.valnevauk.com today.
