Etosha National Park Malaria advice
Posted: Fri July 25, 2003 10:40 AM UTC
I'll be travelling up to Etosha during August and spending a few days there. I'm unsure whether to bother taking any anti-malarials, although I know Etosha can be a risk area. Does anyone have any advice?

The risk of contracting Malaria in Etosha is not as high as further north in the country or the Caprivi Strip, but better to be safe than sorry. We lived in Windhoek for a couple years and didn't regularly take Malaria prophylaxis, except when we traveled to the north.
