Preventive health information for international travelers Recommendations about preventive medications and vaccinations for international travelers are continually reviewed by several public health and international travel organizations. Because of this, we advise you to consult the CDC's recommendations for traveling to Kenya. We also encourage you to visit and discuss travel medicine with the Travel Clinic at MSU's Olin Health Center, or with any other physician experienced in travel medicine. This is important, so plan ahead! COVID-19 Michigan State University requires students, faculty and staff to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 with the initial dose and at least one booster. There are limited medical and religious exemptions. Students will be expected to follow local guidelines, wear face coverings, and monitor symptoms daily while in Kenya.
