A spot of travellers’ diarrhoea might be a modest inconvenience for the holidaymaker relaxing by the beach; at the wrong moment in a war zone, it could become a distraction of more than trivial proportions. There is no substitute for a detailed briefing on the commonest travel-related health problems, and the best ways of combating them.
The variety of issues is vast, from infectious and parasitic diseases to insect bites, animal bites and DVT. You cannot be an expert in everything, and many useful precautions come simply from experience. Seminars, formal briefings, books, and individual consultations can be vital aids for delivering and updating knowledge of the latest thinking on prevention and treatment.
