Warning for travellers to Egypt
02-Nov-2009
Travellers to Egypt beware. The UK’s Daily Mail newspaper has reported that a group of English school-children arriving in the country for holidays was quarantined after some of them were found to have temperatures over 38 ˚C.



Officials, fearing they carried the 2009 H1N1 influenza, separated the kids from their parents; some of them for five days.

Travelvax Australia advised travellers to consider getting the H1N1 vaccine which is easily available at most general practices at least 12 days before departure.
