Malaria

Avoiding Malaria is best summed up in a simple ABCD approach:

A Awareness of risk

B Bite prevention

C Chemoprophylaxis (malaria prevention tablets)

D Prompt Diagnosis (early sickness assessment and treatment)

We offer guidance by using the MASTA area specific maps to look at your risk of Malaria. Location, season and altitude all affect your exposure to mosquitoes.

We have a wide range of bite prevention measures and prevention tablets on offer and will recommend the appropriate malaria prevention tablets based on your requirement and costs.
