It’s the trip of a lifetime, a pleasure trip abroad. Make the most of it by preparing not only your daily itinerary but for a healthy journey.
Each year as many as 45 million Americans travel abroad, with about 20 million of them spending time in rural areas or developing countries, locations where the risks of contracting an illness are great. A study of international travelers on a two-week trip showed on average each traveler "lost" three days because of illness. Almost 20 percent of them remained ill after their return home, and 10 percent sought medical care for their illnesses.
