Useful Tips for Travelers

Water Safety

  • Currents, tides and underwater hazards put swimmers at a risk of drowning. Heed posted warnings at organized beaches and do not bathe at unmarked, uncontrolled beaches.
  • Avoid any exposure, even wading, in any part of any body of water known to be infected with schistosomiasis (biharzia).
  • Do not swim in water where there is sewage contamination or algae present.

Food Safety:Boil it, Cook it, Peel it, or Forget it!

  • Eating or drinking unclean food and water can make you sick with travelers' diarrhea and other diseases. You are at risk if you travel internationally, especially to developing countries. 
  • Always wash hands with soap before and after using the toilet.
  • Avoid purchasing food from street vendors.
  • Avoid buffets without covers or fly controls
  • Avoid high risk food such as shellfish, raw or uncooked foods, unpasteurized dairy products, mayonnaise, unpeeled fruits and salads.
  • Avoid tap water and drinks/ice from tap water, unless advised of their safety by a reliable source.
  • Used sealed bottled water or treated water for drinking and brushing teeth.

Vaccines/Immunizations are required in the treatment of infectious disease. Your travel may take you to a part of the world where serious outbreaks occur and your immune system requires a booster to protect you from exposure and possible infection. Vaccines are administered in various forms: injection, drops or oral capsules.
 A vaccine is actually a weakened micro-organism of the infectious disease. Once administered your body will produce
 anti-bodies to protect you if you were exposed to the full disease.
