i don't see that it says that it destroys your immune system. i got low on wbc's and neutrophils but i continued to travel -- just mask up and avoid children (which are a lot worse than traveling as far as getting diseases, i think) and try to maintain distance. i have been to japan, canada and seattle while on taxol/platin and switzerland and michigan while on herceptin.
