内容説明

This manual is a companion to the "Textbook of Travel Medicine" by the same authors. The manual focuses on the diseases travellers face and how to provide them with the information and immunizations they need to reduce their risk from travel in risky areas. Infectious health risks are covered in-depth, from transmission and epidemiology through incubation and therapy. The health risks covered include anthrax, cholera, hantavirus, hepatitus, HIV, influenza, lassa fever malaria, plague, poliomylitis, rabies and tetanus.
