Re: travelers to jamaica...chic v is no joke!!
I have been traveling to Negril for thirty years. Jamaica is a tropical island with billions of mosquitos. I have been on the island during every month and season of the year. I have never failed to see numerous mosquitoes in the Negril area , my wife has always had numerous bites and I have had more than one or two bites on each visit. I am amazed that anyone could report that they have never seen a mosquito in Negril or on the entire island of Jamaica. Chik-V is epidemic in Jamaica and is increasing in the western part of the island which includes Negril.I have friends from Mobay to Negril who are reporting confirmed cases of Chik-V affecting entire families and their neighbors. Ebola, West Nile and Lymes are not epidemic in the US or Canada so that is an entirely different scenario. And remember, the mosquitoes that carry the virus bite only in the day.
