Some advice - Malaria, Vaccination and Health

At present a Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is required for all visitors to Tanzania. There is Malaria in Tanzania and one needs to start with anti malaria tablets before travelling, during the travel and after the travel - consult your doctor. Malaria can be cured but it is strongly advisable to protect yourself with anti malaria prophylaxis. Wear a shirt/blouse with long sleeves and long trousers in the evenings when mosquitoes are more likely to bite. Apply mosquito repellent to exposed skin and repeat regularly. At Kasa mosquito nets are provided over the beds and it is important that the room should be sprayed before you retire at night.
