It is necessary to observe the following safety rules in order not to do unnecessary inoculations to Malaysia and to stay healthy in the unknown country:

 

1. Vaccinations, which are necessary for visiting Malaysia

Before going to Malaysia, you must get vaccinations against the following serious diseases: tetanus and poliomyelitis, hepatitis A (which is carried through food and water) and typhus. When planning a visit to the jungle and the countryside, it is necessary to immunize against hepatitis B, rabies, Japanese encephalitis, tuberculosis and meningitis. In addition, you should immunize against malaria before visiting Sabah and Sarawak.

2. Dehydration and burns precautions

The solar activity in Malaysia is very high. You should be very careful and avoid sun strokes and burns. Drink a large amount of liquid without sugar to avoid dehydration and for the salts to come out with sweat. Choose clothes, which match the hot, humid climate. Do not forget to wear a cap or a sun hat.

3. Yellow fever

This disease has never been detected in Malaysia, but upon entering this country, you will be asked to show a certificate of vaccination against yellow fever if you have recently been to South America or areas adjacent to the Sahara Desert.

4. Mosquitoes in Malaysia

These insects are bothering tourists and locals during each season because of the stable high humidity throughout the year. In order not to catch a dengue fever, malaria and Japanese encephalitis (from other parasites as well), use and apply on clothes substances, which are containing DEET. It is unlikely to be taken ill of malaria in the Malacca Peninsula, in Kuala Lumpur, in Penang and other major cities. The risk of the disease begins to grow with increasing distance from the coastal plains deep into Malaysia. Preventive maintenance should be carried out before visiting Borneo: Sabah and Sarawak.

5. Food in Malaysia

Food hygiene in Malaysia is strictly observed. But it is better not to buy food from street vendors. You are allowed to drink only boiled or bottled water, or drinks, which are sold in prefabricated jars and bottles. Try not to drink water from the tap. Wash your hands often and with soap. It is necessary to have medicaments for gastrointestinal disorders, infections and antibiotics, which are familiar for you (for self-treatment of moderate illnesses).

Be attentive and responsible. Do not let any illness to ruin your holidays to sunny and warm Malaysia.
