Instructions: Choose a tropical country. State a scenario (e.g. 40 year-old person traveling to rural areas of a country X for 2 weeks leaving in 1 month). Develop a health travel brief for that traveler. You should provide an overview of infectious disease risks (including listing particular diseases that the traveler is at increased risk of relative to Miami by visiting that country), what preparations/preventive measures the traveler should take prior to the trip, during the trip and after the trip. List those recommendations by the particular disease. Consider using a table to organize the information. Your travel brief should be two to three pages long. You are free to do it in any format, but it must be clear, look professional, and not have typographical errors.

Use this resource for the assignment: https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel At that website, you can plug in the name of your country and you will get access to lots of information about heath risks associated with traveling in that country. Please be comprehensive in the list of risks and what preventive measures can be taken to avert the risks. Some may be more specialized for that country like chloroquine-resistant malaria. Other apply to all countries, measles, COVID, etc. Be sure you address any vaccinations needed, any pre-exposure prophylactic medication as with malaria, as well as behaviors (e.g. mosquito repellant). Don't forget food safety either! Even though you are doing it for a fictional situation, think about it as if your mother, child or sibling were traveling. What would you want them to do? You wouldn't want them to miss out on any recommended preventive measure.
