Luckily the company we are going with seems brill in that they have sent us lots of information about what to do, they also recommended the long sleeves and trousers and also to take malara nets. There didn't say where to buy them from though? xxLemon Squeezehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02323670570289871389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13693825995673303.post-42221774503610702432009-07-26T08:19:35.871-07:002009-07-26T08:19:35.871-07:00Ow!

There is absolutely nothing good about malaria, hep, or any other nasty that you listed, that's for sure. <br /><br />http://earthvsworld.blogspot.comDr. P.

I imagine it's because there's a high risk of exposure in nepal, combined with limited access to vaccines, which can be bad news if you're going for an extended stay- rabies virus can initiate the fatal rabies disease as soon as a month, though there have been cases that have occurred up to a year after exposure. Anyway, Rabies is highly prevalent in that region, as well as a few new similar viruses, so don't just rely on that vaccine. If you're bit or think you might have been bit by any mammal, bats included, clean the bite out with preferably warm water and an antiseptic such as iodine (if it's not deep). <br /><br /> Also, as far as Malaria goes, be sure you don't lapse on your meds, and see to it that you see your doctor before you discontinue your preventative regimen. Wear long sleeves and pants whenever you can and please use bug spray. There ARE resistant forms of Malaria out there, so even with preventative drugs on your side, avoiding mosquito bites is still the best method of avoiding Malaria. <br /><br /> Anyway, it sounds like becoming a human pincushion is going to be worth it for you, at least.Safety Squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16007617541488596877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13693825995673303.post-66705468043746653202009-07-25T08:37:24.987-07:002009-07-25T08:37:24.987-07:00:-) thanks Kiaana!
