Good on ya girl, Any country has its risks, but as many of us "returners" will say Goa is fine if you treat it with respect.

Scaremongering from someone who clearly has never been.

shame ....theres just as many nasty diseases that can bump you off here in the uk! and for that matter in switzerland!!!
you can lower your risk by taking a travel clinic/gps advice & getting the shots you need & for somewhere like goa taking malaria tabs, if you get sick there go to a doctor for early treatment, i wouldnt say theres a huge danger but its always a risk.....but then the whole of our lives we're at risk of something anyway & i prefer to live life, we're all more at risk of leaving the planet prematurely everytime we get into a car in the uk than of getting a tropical disease on holiday.

I work in the NHS and the only thing my doctors always stress is to take the malaria tablets, as everyone said before there is a risk where ever you go, just be sensible. I hope he changes his mind because Goa is lovely and he will really miss out, but if he doesnt dont worry you will have a lovely time.

oh no, you cant live your life not going to places "incase" you catch anything or are infected by anything. All you can do is get yourself to the doctor and get all your shots and tablets and you'll be sorted. No doubt when you get back and you and your mate will have had the best time ever, your boyfriend will realise......... ohhhhh he'll be gutted then!!!!

Is he a man or a mouse, he goes to Switzevery year where he might get caught in avalance. If you take the Malaria tablets he should be ok. Life is too short to worry about things that probably wont happen.
No guarentees i know, but lifes like that!!!

A few people I know about have come down with strange dieseases this year.. At present doctors stumped... SO please be careful, best protection is to keep your mosi repelent on and put some netting up at the windows as lots of things are passed via mosquitos...

Hope everyone recovers - best of luck
