Frequently Asked Question
How to take Malarone for malaria prevention?
In addition to a timely yellow fever vaccination, you should protect yourself from mosquito bites while you are abroad.
Using a mosquito repellent and wearing long sleeved-tops as well as long trousers will deter mosquitoes and reduce your risk of catching an infection. You may also wish to take a mosquito coil or plug-in device with you, to use in your accommodation.
By avoiding swamps and other mosquito breeding grounds, you can minimise your exposure to insect bites. Ideally, you should stay in places with air conditioning or at least insect mesh screening in front of all windows.
