just how prevelant is Yellow Fever, what are the incidences of infection?
As a soon to be travelling thru the Americas rider, (departing Kamloops BC Dec 2, for 3+ months) who due to medical interactions, (addisons disease) cannot take the jab in the arm, anywhere anytime, how major of a concern should this be? I will be travelling with a stamped official "no can do" letter in my immunization passport, in both languages. (englise en espano)
The fever ares are at least majority restricted to the lower elevations, the actual yellow fever areas relatively small, (if not travelling in the amazonias). Can Deet based products, long sleeves/pants/nets/really big swatter, be comfortably relied on for protection. More to the point, would a moto-rider traveller be nuts to take the chance?
thx. Wayne.
