  • Carry enough supplies of your regular medication along with prescriptions

  • Consume only bottled or purified water and avoid ice cubes

  • Don’t forget to drink plenty of liquids to stay hydrated at all times

  • It’s better to consume food that is recently cooked and served piping hot

  • Eat fruits and vegetables that are freshly peeled or cooked

  • Don’t forget to wash your hands often, and keep a sanitizer handy

  • To protect yourself against mosquito bites, use repellents containing at least 30% DEET

  • Avoid animal contact and seek medical advice if you are bitten or scratched by one

  • Avoid swimming or wading into fresh water and always wear shoes or sandals while walking on the beach

  • It’s better to use sunblock with a minimum SPF of 15 and wearing a hat can help
