This book provides essential information on the epidemiology, diagnosis and management of common and some rare infections in travellers. It will equip readers with key knowledge on clinically important emerging and re-emerging infections caused by wide variety of bacteria, viruses and parasites. The coverage ranges from influenza, hepatitis, malaria and tuberculosis to Ebola virus disease, Lassa fever, Crimean Congo haemorrhagic fever, dengue, Zika virus infection and many other important diseases. The emergence and spread of antimicrobial-resistant microorganisms is discussed, and practical advice is included regarding disease prevention in travellers and humanitarian aid workers. Other generic chapters address the clinical approach to fever in the returning traveller, and preparedness and response to emerging infectious diseases. This comprehensive, up-to-date book will be an excellent source of information and guidance for all clinicians and researchers with an interest in infectious diseases, microbiology, epidemiology, and travel medicine.
