Diseases

Nothing can ruin a long-anticipated overseas trip like becoming sick while outside your home country! Or worse yet, contracting a serious disease while traveling.

Global travelers will face changes in altitude, temperature, humidity and microbes. All of these can cause ill-health. Also lodging and poor sanitation can negatively affect a person’s health.

It is quite common for the global traveler to experience stomach troubles due to new food and different water. Generally, with correct medication, these troubles can be taken care of in a couple of days.

What must always be a major concern is how to avoid contracting diseases like malaria and hepatitis. These diseases can cause discomfort for life. All travelers need to become familiar with potential health problems they may face in the countries they are visiting in order to minimize any risk to their health.

This section provides information on most of the common diseases and health challenges faced by the worldwide traveler.

"Jeff, I just wanted to say a quick "Thank You" for the newsletter, or "Quarterly E-Bulletin." I don’t know if this is all your work or a team, or you buy content, or just who puts it together; but I’ve gotta say it’s one of the few pieces of its kind that I actually *read* top-to-bottom. [The "Quarterly Bulletin" is written by Jeff, assisted by the GNI staff.]"
