Hi,I am a healthy 38 year old woman and with my 49 year old healthy husband I am travelling to Kota Kinabalu in Borneo for a ten night stay in a five star hotel. I hope to do some snorkeling, white water rafting visit the National Park and visit  Orang Utan monkeys in a sanctuary. Would you advise us getting any vaccination shots or taking Malaria tablets. We would rather not take them but would like your advice.
Yes if you are travelling to malaria prevalent area you can take prophylaxis for malaria. That is chloroquine tablet you need to take that is readily available in market easily. Usually when NRI comes to India they mostly take this type of medicine. It prevents you from malaria. As far as vaccine concern it is not protective effectively in case of malaria infection. So I advise you to take chloroquine tablet. Thanking you.
