    Description

      The Content Logical Definition for http://hl7.org/fhir/ValueSet/immunization-reason contains two SNOMED CT codes given as an example:

      429060002  Procedure to meet occupational requirement
      281657000  Travel vaccinations

      The 2nd one there, 281657000 |Travel vaccinations (procedure)| ,  was inactivated in 2015.   See https://browser.ihtsdotools.org/?perspective=full&conceptId1=281657000&edition=MAIN&release=&languages=en

      The SNOMED on FHIR workgroup suggests that the offered (PossEquivTo) replacement of 14747002 |Elective immunisation for international travel| could be substituted.  They also suggest adding 409516001 |Post-exposure prophylaxis, 1137457009 |Pre-exposure prophylaxis| or the parent of both: 710170000 |Administration of prophylactic treatment|
