I live and fly in PNG where malaria is extremely rampant. I was on Chloroquine last year and actually contracted the disease which almost killed me. After a quick visit to the UK to get the all clear the doctors at the Tropical Disease Centre told me that Chloroquine was pretty useless in my particular area and that I should take Doxy instead. I guess time will tell.
