unexpected.From food poisoning, jet lag, to a small disruptive injury, all can make the holiday agenda messy.
To keep the trip pleasant and free from illness, it is important for you to prepare yourself well.Henry Wu, a specialist infectious disease at the same time

, emphasizing that health is the main key to enjoy every holiday moment.
Here are some tips that you can apply:
1. Plan carefully
Before leaving, find out health risks in the destination country.Do you need a certain vaccination?What about the risk of disease transmitted through food or mosquitoes?Wu stressed, preparation earlier made you avoid illness that could damage the holidays.
Flu and Covid-19 vaccines should also be updated.Even though you feel healthy, the risk of contracting or transmitting to others is still there.
2. Bring health equipment
Just like carrying toiletries, don’t forget to bring a mini first aid kit.Fill with personal drugs, pain relievers, diarrhea drugs, antacids, travel sickness drugs, antinyamuk, hand sanitizers, sunscreen, and plaster for small wounds.
“Besides hand sanitizer, I also brought a mask to be used in a tightly closed room,” Wu said.
Masks are proven to be effective in reducing the risk of respiratory infections while traveling.
3. Take care of hand cleanliness
Wash your hands with soap for at least 20 seconds, especially before eating and after a public place, is the first defense of germs.If soap and water are not available, use alcohol -based hand sanitizer.Avoid touching the face, especially the area of the eye, nose, and mouth.
4. Be careful with food and drinks
Enjoying local culinary is indeed an exciting part of the trip, but you need to be careful.Make sure the drinking water is safe for consumption, if necessary use bottled water to drink to brush your teeth.
Avoid raw or half cooked food, including meat, seafood, and eggs.Choose food that has just been cooked and still hot.For fruits and vegetables, wash with clean water or choose that can be peeled alone.
5. Adequate rest
Lack of sleep can make the body’s endurance decrease.Try to adjust to the local time zone to reduce jet lag.
Being in the morning sun also helps the body adjust biological rhythm.
6. Beware of risks on travel and destination location
Not infrequently, tourists actually take excessive risk while on vacation.
“If at home is not accustomed to riding a motorcycle, why should try it on a busy Bangkok streets?”said Wu.
Likewise with swimming in the high seas, if you are not a trained swimmer.Remember, injuries during holidays are more common than infection.
7. Listen to your body
If you start to feel unwell, don’t ignore.Immediately look for medical assistance, especially if you experience severe diarrhea, dehydration, wounds due to animal bites, or serious sunburn.Faster handled, smaller risk of complications.
Although there are many things to watch out for, traveling also provides health benefits.
“Explaining the new city can inspire healthy lifestyles, such as cycling in Denmark or walking in London. In fact, traveling to countries with limited resources can open a new perspective on ways of life,” Wu said.
