Useful health info online
Check out www.iamat.org
Intl. Association for Medical Assistance to Travellers - not a health insurance, but an association of Western trained medical professionals around the world that speak English and offer qualified treatment at a fixed price.
Membership is free, it's a non -profit org.
Also on their website:
Advice on malaria prophylaxis
Malaria risk charts for every country
Immunisation charts for every country and territory on the planet.
(The charts are almost a year old, but we have the printed charts from 2002 and nothing much has changed. I expect a new one out 15/3/2005.)
A useful resource for us, I think.
