Diarrhoea - a present for us?
Tourists on holiday can bring from their favourite destination not only souvenirs but also different health problems in form of infectious diseases. The most often are diarrheal and respiratory diseases. Lots of Slovaks avoid exotic diseases by preventative vaccination.
Every year diarrheal diseases belong to holiday „presents“. Salmonellosis is the most common from them. Than continue illnesses of airways which originate in alternation of warm and cold air and air-conditioning. 
In last year were registrated 107 diseases from 36 countries from whole world. From this view the most dangerous countries are Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia and India.
Except from vaccination there are another ways to avoid this troubles. Doctors advise to consume only thermically processed victuals, drink only packed wather and don´t taste everything that is offered to you. Sometimes Slovaks bring bottle of domestic alcohol because they believe that it is the medicine for everything. I´m afraid that they are wrong.
Every year about 20- 30 Slovaks get infected by exotic diseases. 7 years ago Slovakia noticed one mortal case. One woman wanted to visit Kamerun and this decision was fatal for her because she succumbed to malaria.
The aim of this article wasn´t to persuade you to stay at home but realize that prevention is better than treatment.
