Article 66 of the International Health Regulations, passed by the World Health Assembly and which the Government of Canada is a signator, stipulates that "the vaccinating centre must have been designated by the health administration for the territory in which it is situated". Vaccinating centres are officially designated by countries in accordance with the International Health Regulations. Accordingly, Health Canada has established criteria which must be met for a clinic to be designated as a Yellow Fever vaccination centre. These criteria are designed to ensure that those persons seeking a Yellow Fever Immunization prior to travel abroad have reasonable access to a Yellow Fever Vaccination clinic and are provided with appropriate travel advice and safe vaccination practices. 1, record 7, English, - Yellow%20Fever%20Vaccination%20Centres%20Program

L'article 66 du Règlement sanitaire international, adopté par l'Assemblée mondiale de la santé, et dont le gouvernement du Canada est un signataire, stipule que «le centre de vaccination doit avoir été habilité par l'administration sanitaire du territoire dans lequel ce centre est situé». Les centres de vaccination sont officiellement désignés par les pays en conformité du Règlement sanitaire international. En conséquence, Santé Canada a établi des critères qui doivent être respectés pour qu'un établissement soit désigné centre de vaccination contre la fièvre jaune. Ces critères visent à garantir que les personnes qui désirent se faire vacciner contre la fièvre jaune avant d'entreprendre un voyage à l'étranger peuvent raisonnablement avoir accès à une clinique de vaccination contre la fièvre jaune, y recevoir des conseils judicieux ayant trait à leur déplacement et bénéficier de pratiques de vaccination sûres. 1, record 7, French, - Programme%20des%20centres%20de%20vaccination%20contre%20la%20fi%C3%A8vre%20jaune
