Lets play a game of name that tropical disease
I have a fever...
Other symptoms
- Chills - +1 Malaria
- However, it is cold and raining at the time - -1 Malaria
- Back ache- +1 Dengue
- However, I slept for 12 hours on a thin foam mat for the past 2 days - -1 Dengue
- Headache- +1 Malaria
- However, I probably have not had enough coffee recently - -1 Malaria
Final score as confirmed by the Hospital on Corn Island -
You have nada. Who knows what caused the fever, but I am
fine now. Thank god, my parents nagged me about stopping
the Malaria medication. I would hate for them to justifyably be able
to tell me "I told you so".
The Hospital was suprisingly Westernized and sterile.
And they are a step ahead of the US in that they
apparently have free medical care.
