Malaria

 
   
Most areas in South Africa are Malaria free zones with the exceptions of the Kruger National Park area and northern Kwazulu Natal. However, they are regarded as low risk. The risk is higher in the rainy season between October and February. There are a number of preventative measures against malaria.

To protect yourself, always use mosquito repellent (even during the day) wear light, long sleeved shirts, long pants and shoes and socks at night, and sleep under a net or in a mosquito-proof room. Even if you are taking oral malaria prophylactic, you can still get malaria if you are bitten by an infected anopheles mosquito, so a good repellent is your easiest and most effective precaution. And South African doctors advise that no malaria tablets protects against all types of malaria. Please consult your local doctor for more information.
