Infectious Diseases: A Geographic Guide
This concise and practical guide provides information on disease risk, concomitant infections (such as co-prevalence of HIV and malaria) and emerging infections that may be challenging to diagnose. The book is divided according to United Nations world regions and addresses geographic disease profiles, presenting symptoms, and incubation periods of infections.
For the clinician, this book is a tool to generate differential diagnoses by considering the geographical history, as well the presenting symptoms and duration of illness.
For the travel medicine specialist, this book provides information on risks of different diseases at various destinations and is particularly useful in advising and assessing long-term travellers or those visiting locations 'off the beaten path'.
For the physician from one area of the world practicing medicine in another region, this book assists by distinguishing the infections that are prevalent locally
