Date:6/2/2010

LITTLETON, Colo., June 2 /PRNewswire/ --

1. Visit your doctor

Visit your local doctor one month prior to your intended trip departure date. To discuss your travel plans, accommodation and potential health concerns or risks at your destination country.

2. Get your immunizations up to date

Discuss with your doctor or a Travellers Medical and Vaccination Centre (TMVC) about the current immunization recommendations for South Africa. Currently these include consideration for immunization against the following diseases: Measles/Mumps/Rubella (MMR Vaccine), Diphtheria/Pertussis/Tetanus (DPT, Bostrix), Polio, Hepatitis A & B and Typhoid may be advisable. Malaria is also present in Mpumalanga Province, Limpopo (Northern) Province, and northeastern KwaZulu-Natal as far south as the Tugela River and is present in Kruger National Park; if you are traveling to these areas you may wish to consider obtaining anti-malarial medication from your doctor or International Travel Vaccination Centre.

3. Consider a Flu Vaccination

Consider having your seasonal flu & H1N1 immunization prior to your travel. Discuss this with your Healthcare provider. There will be people coming from around the world to South Africa; it may no longer be the flu season in your home country but other travelers could carry the flu virus. Take a small bottle of an alcohol-based hand rub or hand hygiene on the go and regularly wash your hands with soap and fresh water. Remember cough etiquette - use a tissue and dispose of it appropriately.

4. Pack insect repellent
