How would the Ministry of Health know if any there were any new cases? If someone had ChickV and didn't get medical assistant in Negril or got sick when they got home, there would not be a report of it.

I had more mosquito bites this year than any other visit to Negril. Make sure to bring spray and use it diligently. Ensure there are screens on the windows and keep doors closed. We tend not to worry about using spray indoors but the mosquitos do come in. We also used mosquito coils whenever we went out on our balcony/patio. You just can't be too careful.

ChickV is a nasty virus and causes horrible pain to joints, headaches, fever, chills, fatigue, and muscle pain. Not the way you want to spend your vacation or go home with.
