Prevent mosquito stings

It is commonly known to use malaria pills against malaria. However, these pills do NOT give full protection. More than 1 million people die of malaria per year. There is no vaccine or medicine available yet against dengue. That is why you must prevent mosquito bites as much as possible.

Care Plus tip:

The malaria mosquito is only active during the evening and night, whereas the dengue mosquito is active during the day. So always protect yourself!
