Whether planning a long weekend in Mexico, a business trip to
Ghana, or a semester abroad in Vietnam, travelers need current and
practical information on protecting their health in foreign
countries. Staying Healthy Abroad gives straightforward and
easy-to-follow recommendations for those traveling for pleasure,
study, business, or volunteer work; for short- or long-term stays;
and to destinations ranging from rural areas to large cities, in
both developing and industrialized nations. Observing that risk is
determined less by where you go than by what you do, physician and
educator Christopher Sanford provides succinct overviews and
commonsense advice on how to prevent communicable diseases, malaria
and other mosquito-borne illnesses, and travelers' diarrhea; avoid
traffic and water accidents; and evaluate post-trip symptoms; and
addresses many other concerns. His emphasis is on ailments and
injuries that travelers are most likely to encounter, because "if
something occurs less frequently than one-in-a-million, it probably
isn't going to happen to you." Staying Healthy Abroad also covers
concerns unique to women, men, children, LGBTQ individuals, and
travelers with chronic illnesses. International travel can be a
business requirement, a study-abroad opportunity, an exciting
adventure, or a quick getaway outside the normal routine. The
majority of health and safety risks for travelers can be avoided
with sensible pre-travel precautions, such as immunizations, and
attention to safe behavior while away. From altitude sickness to
Zika virus, the clear and concise information in Staying Healthy
Abroad helps make global travel less stressful and more enjoyable.
