Hi all,
I've got the opportunity to meet a potentially good client in sub-saharan Africa in 6 days.
I'd like to go, but am a little worried about little things like Malaria, Yellow fever, Cholera, Typhoid and HepA/B to name but a few.
This has all been a bit of a fastball and I've had no jabs as yet.
Now all the websites say take this, take that....to cover their arrses, however, do I really need all of that, or can I wing it and be relatively safe?
A friend of mine told me to chew a few Larium on the plane, cover up, slap on a bit of DEET and hope for the best. Obviously it would be safe food/water/no sh*gging etc.
It could be good business, but on the other hand I don't want to come home and die a slow lingering painful death.
Any comments appreciated,
Thanks
