late night party
Spoke to a doc from the WHO in Kinshasa some time ago. The research show that the malaria moz in that area only becom activ late at night(9-10) and stop early in the morning.
Now that tells us to be indoors at that time. Sorry for those who like to sit outside in resturants etc till late night. Put the braai up early
The best preventative is to cover yourself in anti moz spray. Do not just spray the exposed parts of the skin but also where clothing stretch tight cos the boz can bite through the clothing.
Be careful of vehicles. The mozzies hide inside in the dark areas and zop your legs while driving If its your vehicle, spray the vehicle regularly with a long lasting bugspray. If its a taxi spray the driver and the car. Jokes aside, before leaving in the morning spray your lega, socks etc just for this reason.
The best cure for malaria is not to get bitten Use common sence and a lot of spray.
Keep it safe
