Preventing mosquito bites


For mission trip participants taking the anti-malaria medication Chloroquine, today is the day to take the second dose. Also, mission team members planning to spray the anti-malaria treatment Permetrin on your clothes and luggage who have not already done so, this weekend would be a good time. Apparently the treatment can survive some time and washings, and so it’s definitely not too soon. Recall that the University of Louisville International Travel Clinic map puts El Estor in the malaria risk area.
