Living conditions

Health and safety

Health precautions
A certificate of vaccination against yellow fever is required for travelers over one year old coming from affected areas.
Bathing in fresh water exposes you to the risk of urinary bilharziosis (or schistosomiasis). Bathing can be envisaged when a reliable report on the place is available. Bilharziosis is particularly present in the valley of the Jordan. As conditions of hygiene are not especially good, you should avoid drinking tap water, eating raw vegetables and consuming raw or poorly cooked foods.
If you are staying in a rural area, you should take repellents with you to avoid possible bites from phlebotoma which can transmit phlebotoma fever (leishmaniosis).
