    Since 2012, the Jamaican health authorities have implemented strong mosquito eradication programs including the spraying of entire effected areas because of dengue.

    I am sure some of you have heard the warning announcements and/or the clouds of spray, we were with some of you at Canoe one Thursday night during the webcast and caught the whole thing happening live.

    If this disease would happen to make it to Jamaica, I am sure they will institute the same practice as an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...

    Good to know. I don't generally worry too much about this kind of thing, just take proper precautions and enjoy life. Life is too short to spend worrying about everything that could happen...
