Oh nice. I used to be all for it, but by now ... there are vaccines and boosters for those who need it, travel restrictions don't really help anyway and oh my goodness the check in at LHR last time I went was a mess because of all the document checks for visitors boarding flights to the US

Looking forward to not having to do all this to visit Indonesia next year or so

Oh, I didn't realize there is one!

IIRC malaria medication is recommended for some parts of the country; CDC does not even mention dengue at all

When my relatives got dengue in the past IIRC the treatment is basically trying to keep thrombocytes level up until the disease ran it course.

Yes. There is a new vaccin .. approved for children. And if I am not mistaken also for adults up to 45 years. Still testing for other cohorts.
