    • World's Worst Travel Diseases - What you need to know to stay healthy when you’re traveling.

      Malaria

      What it is: A potentially fatal disease caused by a parasite, usually transmitted by a bite from an infected mosquito. Chills and headaches are just two of its milder symptoms.
      Where it’s found: Large areas of Central and South America, the Dominican Republic and Haiti, parts of Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, and the South Pacific.

      How to avoid it:
      Ask your doctor to prescribe the appropriate prophylaxis before traveling — usually mefloquine or chloroquine, depending where you’re going. And take measures to prevent mosquito bites, like wearing long sleeves and pants and protecting your skin with a repellent containing DEET.
