bojo Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Is malaria prevalent in Buriram? Some people might bring tablets if it was. My opinion of swine flu so far is that it would be better to catch it now and hopefully should it ever mutate to something far worse I might have built up to some immunity to combat the more potent version.

Like what? I would plan to bring Tamiflu we are using it here in the Uk to treat the flu once it has been caught by the person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiPauly Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Sure why not? As long as you are not stoping in Dubai where the medication laws are draconian you should be fine to bring them. I am on about 8 different meds and take them back and forth to the UK all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't bring treatment to Thailand. When you'll be in Bangkok, be aware that you shouldn't stay at crowded places....but the most places there are crowded, right? I live in Sisaket, which is 150 km's away from Buri Ram. The chance to get killed in a car accident is much higher than to get the swine flu. Chai Jenn.

Sheryl Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Thai hospitals can test for and treat swine flu, no need to bring your own meds. And no need for malaria prophlaxis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
