STOP MALARIA
To prevent getting Malaria, follow these steps.
Step 1
Go to your doctor or county medical center and request a list of recommended vaccinations and preventive medicine for your destination.
Step 2
Take your medication on schedule and make sure you don't miss days. Consistently apply and re-apply insect repellent.
Step 3
Avoid hanging out next to areas where there is a lot of still water. Mosquitos - the carriers of malaria - breed in such areas.
Step 4
Wear long-sleeved shirts and pants in the evenings to give you extra coverage.
Step 5
Sleep inside a mosquito net.
Step 6
Complete your full cycle of medication, even if you've returned home to a malaria-free zone.
