AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums The Cayes Ambergris Caye I'm paranoid about catching something.

All this talk about Malaria and pica pica. Someone give me some suggestions. Anything

Well 2 weeks ago...I hardly saw any mosquitoes. Just go to your doc and get the chloriquinn and take it. It helps protect you, but it isn't like your not still going to get bitten. I actually can say I hardly saw anybugs. I WANT TO GO BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I MISS IT ALREADY

drink lots!

Sorry but if you're that paranoid, stay home. I don't mean to be harsh but all that paranoia can ruin a wonderful vacation. It's alright to be safe, like buy mosquito spray with deet and put on suntan lotion or sea safe before you go in the water but don't let it eat at you. Go, drink lots, soak up the sun and enjoy paradise.

more likely your plane will get hijacked than you will get malaria ...now go get paranoid over that!

Well I was all paranoid just like barstools and dreamers...That is why i went to the docs...and it didn't ruin my vacation at all. And KLCman is right more chances of a hijack then getting malaria.

I smell a new thread, "things most likely to ruin your vacation"

no worries......be happy.

Hijackings...HMMMM...another good reason to always bring your parachute as a carry on item!

AND. I would be more worried about getting creamed by a drunk tourist on a golf cart than getting Malaria!!!!
