Health care in Mexico
What are the health risks in Mexico?
Mexico presents certain health risks for travelers, such as diarrhea, dengue fever, Zika and chikungunya, typhoid fever, hepatitis A and rabies. It's important to take preventive measures such as drinking sealed bottled water, eating well-cooked food, using mosquito repellent, avoiding contact with infected animals and getting vaccinated if necessary.
What type of plumbing system should I use?
In Mexico, it is preferable to use the private network, which is certainly more expensive, but generally offers better quality healthcare.
How can I reduce the risks of travelling responsibly (or fairmoove) in Mexico?
If you want to travel responsibly and fairmoove in this beautiful country, here are three things you can do:
- Respect local culture and traditions by paying close attention to dress codes and customs.
- Choose eco-responsible accommodation and environmentally-friendly activities. For example, explore nature by hiking or cycling rather than taking car tours.
- Try to limit your carbon footprint by choosing eco-responsible means of transport, such as public transport, or by sharing a vehicle with other travellers.
Did you know that Mexico is one of the best places for eco-tourism? The country is home to numerous protected areas and nature reserves to preserve the local flora and fauna. An interesting anecdote is that in the Riviera Maya region, hotels have been built using local materials and traditional techniques to minimize their impact on the environment. With a collective commitment to sustainable tourism, we can continue to enjoy the beauty of Mexico for many years to come.
