malaria

Hello there,

thanks all for sharing the information, it is very helpful. I plan to try to get a job over there when I finish my training.

As for malaria, after living 20 years in Africa, I think there is not much you can do to avoid it. I used to get malaria 1-2 times a year and I've tried all the precautions.

But it's not a big deal for those of us who have enough money (10-20$) to buy the medications, you will heal in 2-3 days, but you will lose some weight. It's a shame that too many local people don't have enough money and die from it.
