A leading medical expert has issued a list of tips
for travellers. The advice on how to stay healthy and cut
the risk of contracting severe acute respiratory syndrome
(SARS) comes in the wake of the worldwide scare the disease
has triggered.
Zeng Guang, a leading
researcher with the Beijing-based Chinese Centre for Disease
Control and Prevention, said there were some elementary
precautions people should take, the People's Daily reported.
But his advice was not only confined to the risks posed
following the outbreak of SARS, or atypical pneumonia, but
for travellers in general. Travel ordinarily upsets a
person's normal life rhythms and by creating more
opportunities for contact with strangers, makes them more
susceptible to diseases.
