WHEN YOU TRAVEL ABROAD, CAMP OR BACKPACK …

… you run a risk of illness ranging from the inconvenience and discomfort of diarrhea to more
serious illnesses caused by protozoan cysts (i.e., Giardia, Cryptosporidium), viruses and
bacteria.
The microorganisms that cause these diseases are often found in the food and water you con-
sume. Lakes, streams and the local water supply may be contaminated. 
To minimize the risk of contracting these illnesses, we suggest that you consult with your physi-
cian, state health department or travelers’ clinic 4-6 weeks before you depart. 

And while you are traveling…

– Make sure that prepared food is thoroughly cooked.
– Select non-cooked foods (fruits, nuts, etc.) that have intact shells or skins, and clean your

hands before peeling the food

– Wash your hands with soap and water thoroughly and often, especially before you eat.
